BBQ CELEBRATION FOR TE KAKANO VOLUNTEERS Te Kākano’s recent win of the Supreme Award at the 2013 TrustPower Queenstown Lakes District Community Awards highlights what has already been a great year for the trust. Te Kākano now has the opportunity to represent the district at the 2013 Trustpower National Community Awards, to be held in Invercargill in March 2014. A massive thank you to our grant funders, project sponsors, donors and in-kind sponsors for supporting our various restoration projects. We are also extremely grateful to all our volunteers for their time and energy at the nursery and planting days. It is because of you that all these plants are now thriving. We’ve enjoyed tremendous support from locals and visitors, young and old, where each
has left their own mark in our landscape. More than 6,000 new native plants have gone out towards 13 different native habitat restoration project sites this year where they now grace local habitat areas from Glendhu Bay to the Hawea foreshore.
