The Takatu LandCare group is inviting people to join their planting day on Sunday June 11.
The group is restoring a riparian strip on the Tāwharanui Peninsula.
The site will be an important waypoint for native birds travelling the peninsula, and will help reduce silt and nutrient runoff.
Landowners have fenced the stream, cleared the weeds and prepared the ground, and Auckland Council has funded the plants.
“We now need help to plant more than 6000 natives over two weekends,” a spokesperson said.
The first planting is on June 11, on the corner of Takatu and Whitmore Roads, will start at 9am.
Volunteers are being asked to bring a spade, friends and snacks.
A BBQ lunch will be provided.
Plants are being laid out on Saturday June 10 and any help with that job would also be greatly appreciated.
