Restoring Te Auaunga Oakley Creek w/ Wendy Johns: 4th April, 2022.

Sam Clark spoke to Wendy John, Co-founder and project manager of Nga Ringa o Te Auaunga/Friends of Oakley Creek about a new restoration project that focuses on removing harmful weeds. Wendy John says Te Auaunga is relatively healthy for an urban creek, but there’s still lots of work to be done. She says Te Auaunga is a ‘combined sewer/stormwater catchment’ – which means wastewater flows into the creek when there’s heavy rain and storms.

The restoration sessions are every Tuesday 9:30am-12pm. https://www.facebook.com/OakleyCreek
