Community Board Grant Allows Privet Tree Removal
Privet trees marked for removal by contractors. Northland Treeworks felled 10 large Privet trees along the Wairoa Stream track, which was funded by a grant of $2,898 from our Bay of Islands / Whangaroa Community Board and follows a Community Board grant last year to fell 8 large Privet Trees, for which Friends of Wairoa Stream (FOWS) is very grateful. The felling was delayed for many months because of the about 1300 mm of rainfall Kerikeri experienced between April and August
