Go Organics Course

Robert and Robyn Guyton are running this years “Go Organics Course” and on Saturday 4th July the group came to the Community Nursery to learn about native plants. Particularly of interest were the topics of native shelterbelts, creating wetlands, plants to attract birds and propagating plants from seed and cuttings. Time was spent walking around the pond and bush track looking at different aspects of native plants for restoration projects.  The day was completed with a brief look at some of Southland’s rarest plants in the Threatened Plant Garden.
