It was great to help the Mangawhai Harbour Restoration Society (MHRS) again this month – rolling up our sleeves for a cause that deeply resonates with us.
It was great to help the Mangawhai Harbour Restoration Society (MHRS) again this month – rolling up our sleeves for a cause that deeply resonates with us.
As a team, we donated 640 native plants and enjoyed an afternoon away from our desks to plant them into the vulnerable landscape that hugs the Mangawhai Sandspit.
As a horticultural and landscape distributor, we’re committed to providing top-quality nursery and garden supplies, but our dedication doesn’t end there. Generosity is one of our core values and supporting community initiatives is a great way to ‘walk the talk’ and actively give back.
The Mangawhai Harbour Restoration Society is a well-respected local organisation that tirelessly works towards revitalising and preserving our precious local harbour. Their enormous efforts are ongoing and cover everything from well-designed planting and fencing programs to stabilising shifting sands and helping with bird nesting.
Recognising the pivotal role that planting plays in this process, we were keen to offer our expertise and resources, including Smartgro Fertiliser Tablets, Smartgro Water Crystals, Bamboo Stakes and Plant Guards.
Getting on the tools is great for team building.
Some of our bestselling gardening tools were put through their paces during the planting session, including The Gardener Contractor Gloves and The Gardener Spades. This hands-on experience always fosters a sense of camaraderie among the team but also reminds us of the importance of community involvement to help the local environment.
Planting the seeds for future collaboration.
With generosity as a core value, our work doesn’t start and end with last week’s voluntary planting day. As a team, we are committed to exploring ways to support the horticultural industry and our local community.
As we write, some exciting long-term plans are being considered – including projects that make a positive impact and nurture a healthier environment.
When business and community join forces – it can be unstoppable!
