Working Bees
Working bees are a great way to get involved in our work, meet new people (we’re a friendly bunch!), and get outdoors in a beautiful part of the world!
Our working bees normally start at 9:30 am and end around 12pm. Working bees include a light morning tea (coffee, tea, muffins).
For rubbish clean-ups or planting days, it is recommended that you bring gloves, hat, suncream and stout shoes. Please feel free to get in touch if you would like more information, and to confirm if the bee is definitely going ahead, as it may be weather dependent.
Contact us if you would like to be added to our mailing list to receive updates about working bees and other events, and feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
