Waihopai River Restoration

I am in the bottom left corner
Today at Enrich we went to the Waihopai river and planted 250 toitoi and flax. The flax and toitoi traps the mud and sediment (when the river floods) so it wont get back into the river.We were helped by Environment Southland, Hannah M, Hannah H, Kate and Madison. My partner was Hyrum  and together we planted about 25 trees. At morning tea the girls gave us juice boxes! Darryn's dog Bruce was there and he almost squashed 1 of our plants!
