August action! Get involved in our community activities this month

Takapuna Eco-Exchange

Do you have dead batteries lurking in your drawers? Bring them to our Eco-Exchange and help keep our environment safe by disposing of them properly. Improper disposal of batteries in landfill rubbish or recycling can lead to dangerous consequences, including: toxic chemicals leaching into our soils and waterways, increased risk of truck fires during transportation and harm to our community and wildlife.

By dropping off your used batteries, you'll be promoting responsible waste management and helping to reduce the risk of these hazards. Let's work together to create a safer and more sustainable future! Drop off your used batteries and do your part for a safer community on Monday 5 August at Takapuna Library.

Matariki Tree Planting

Tree planting Saturday 3 August - Join us for a fun, family-friendly tree planting day! Bring the whole whānau along; help regenerate our environment by planting native trees, connecting with nature, and giving back to our community. We’ll also serve up a warming soup at the end. Suitable for ages 5+. Visit our Humanatix page for more information and to book your spot!

August Predator Pulse

Have you noticed an increase in possums in our reserves and your backyard? These invasive species harm our native wildlife by eating bird eggs, seeds and leaves, preventing regeneration. Join our August Predator Pulse and help trap and remove these pests to encourage biodiversity and healthier ecosystems. Get in touch with us to learn more.

We’d love to hear from you!

Your voice matters, and we want to hear from you about what's important to preserve our backyard. If you have any feedback on how we serve you or would like to share some ideas, please get in touch with us.
