In 2022 we were gifted plants from the Council’s ‘Mayor’s Million Trees’ programme for our restoration project. We planted 600 of them in Harbutt Reserve. However, there is lots of work to be done to ensure they survive and thrive.

Join us for a plant releasing / weeding and mulching session.

Follow the signs / flags from the reserve entrance, south-west along the shared path to the end of the mown area.

Back in December last year Urban Ark asked Boffa Miskell’s Mark Lewis if he would deliver a public presentation. We were after a landscape architect’s perspective on stream restoration, daylighting and flood mitigation. Little did we foresee the floods which were just around the corner!

Mark was the design lead for the Te Auaunga: Walmsley and Underwood Reserves project, which minimises flooding around 200 homes and established an 8 hectare riverside park along two kilometres of Oakley Creek in Mt Roskill. Seven tributaries were daylighted and shared pathways created along with an outdoor classroom and Te Māra Hūpara playground.

Mark will be speaking on the effect of this and other green infrastructure projects to both mitigate and adapt to the impacts of climate change.

There should be plenty of time for discussion after Mark’s presentation.

When Thursday 27 April 7.30pm to 9pm

Where Grasslands Room, Auckland Zoo, 99 Motions Rd. Look for the Urban Ark flag beside the main entrance

Bookings Numbers for this talk are limited to 100. Book here for your FREE ticket.
