Charles worth Reserve
That to expect:
Charles worth Reserve’s habitat is a restoration of tidal wetland and surrounding coastal shrub land and forest. This is an important habitat for native wetland birds and will become increasingly important as a habitat for bush birds, lizards and native insects as the vegetation matures.
Regular working bees:
Join Christchurch City Council and Avon Heath cote Estuary Itaipu Trust
every Sunday afternoon to help maintain Charles worth Reserve. Tasks depend on the season and weather but generally involve planting, pruning, watering and invasive weed removal.
Community:
Join in the fun at Charles worth Reserve's annual planting day!
This year's annual event was held on 19 May and attended by 95 people. Trees for Canterbury
kindly donated 1600 seedlings which were all planted in an amazing effort.
