Wicked Weeders

The Wicked Weeders are a group of all round good-sort locals who share a passion for Greening Taupō and love to get out and about and muck in!

They meet every Tuesday and revisit many Greening Taupō and Kids Greening Taupō planting sites. They give them a bit of TLC by the releasing of plants, weed control and sometimes just finishing off a few things that got missed on the big planting days.

This is a really important part of Greening Taupō mahi and it determines the success of each and every site and we couldn't achieve this without the help of the Wicked Weeders.

We would love you to join the Wicked Weeders team and encourage you to come along when you can.

Sign up below and we’ll send you updates about when we’re off to next.

The Wicked Weeders meet each Tuesday at different sites

Summer hours 9:30am - 11:30am (Oct thru May)

Winter hours 12.30pm - 2.30pm (April thru Sept)

It is weather dependent…we don't go if its too wet and there is always a cuppa, biscuits and a good natter to finish off.

We ask you to wear suitable footwear, hat, gardening gloves and wet weather gear if required.

Useful tools to release weeds are good but not essential as we do have some tools available.
