Envirohub's Space for Nature is making a start in Katikati.Their first event is on Sunday 24th September. People can come along to find out more and hear from experts on how to plant your garden for wildlife.The initiative aims to celebrate and support urban residents, education providers, community organisations and businesses who are protecting biodiversity in their backyards, and to encourage others to do the same.In exchange for a pledge to provide a safe habitat for wildlife in their gardens, participants receive a sign for their gate or letterbox, which acknowledges their commitment and hopefully inspires others in the neighbourhood to get on board.Envirohub can provide advice and resources; and connect you with initiatives in your area. Check out their Facebook page and website below for more information.https://www.facebook.com/events/6706851906037835/?ref=newsfeedhttps://waiarikiparkregion.org.nz/home/spacefornature/…. ...
