Ani Pene

I had a fun morning at the Mount Beach playing Volleyball with my friends, a lot of laughs shared, so nice to be able to get out into the fresh air.  

This week both of our Discovery groups helped volunteer with Coast care. In March we weeded the sand dunes & this week we went back to the same area at 192 Marine Parade & replanted 2 different types of plants to protect our beach. Sand dunes are important primarily due to their protective role for coastal areas & as habitats for unique plant & aniaml life. We worked hard & dug holes to a certain depth before planting the new plants.   

I had so much fun visiting & exploring Ngaapeke Permaculture, I helped feed the ducks and chickens, sheep, pigs and patted the horses, we walked towards the river and seen all the native plants planted along the way, there was even BANANA trees!!
