Weeding & Track Maintenance Teams

Motuihe Island / Te Motu-a-Ihenga

Great progress has been made since 2002 to control invasive weeds on Motuihe, however it is hugely important that we continue in maintenance mode.  The weed effort has come a long way thanks to our enthusiastic volunteers and leaders.  Volunteers are always welcome to help with this task, you'll need a reasonable standard of fitness.

With the excellent plant growth over the last few years, track clearing is now a regular volunteer task.  This will ensure tracks are accessible by weed teams, monitoring teams and island visitors.

Contact operations@motuihe.org.nz if you are interested in finding out more.
