Field Trip - Tutukaka - Auckland Anniversary weekend
Saturday 28th - Monday 30th January 2012
Camping out at Guy and Sandra Bowden's property - this is a laid-back field trip so bring your tent or caravan.
Take advantage of one of our member's slice of paradise with astonishing views, two minutes walk to an amazing beach, clear water and great fishing and diving. No dogs as there are kiwi on the property.
Saturday afternoon we will tour the nursery and bush area. Informal evening get together. Jeff Elliott will talk about tricks in propagation by cuttings.
Jeff will be there a few days earlier and it is fine for anyone to camp a few extra days.
Sunday boat trip around Poor Knights Island fishing through charter company. Guy will talk about vegetation on the island otherwise lounging on the beach. Sunday night BBQ and question and answer time.
A donation to Guy's bush fund would be appreciated otherwise no cost.
