Leatham Valley - Spaniard Flat eradication of wilding pines 25 & 26 Feb 2012
The Club has undertaken to help DOC keep two flats in the Leatham Valley clear of wilding pines. On this first visit club volunteers removed approximately 800 seedlings, coning and adult trees from Spaniard Flat so that the two flats are essentially free of pines though it is of course expected that seedlings will continue to spring up for some years to come.
It is expected that a trip to remove seedlings will become an annual event.
