The Tree Council presents a not to be missed event, 'Sustaining Auckland - The Role of Trees', to mark Arbor Day and World Environment Day.  Please see flyer.

The event will be held on Saturday 5th June, between 2pm – 5pm, at Grey Lynn Community Centre, 510 Richmond Road, Grey Lynn, Auckland.
 
Urban tree protection and planning legislation has been in headlines over the past year.  Why is it that people feel so strongly about trees?  How complex and sustainable is Auckland’s urban forest? How can the planning system be used to improve the vitality of our treescape?  Find out more how trees contribute to our physical and mental wellbeing.
