Hi folks, it’s really happening! Let’s all catch up tomorrow at 10 am (see event details) and meet and greet. We have our garden plan (PDF) to work from, and we need to mark out where the things will go, who has access to what resources, and what we can get started with first.
The council have already mown and mulched the site for us, so that’s the first thing done from the list of tasks in the plan. Likely candidates for things we can start doing are:
We are currently investigating the option to move one of the old shelter buildings from the closed Muri Station onto the site, to use as the potting/tool shed, and the council are willing to provide a water tank for garden and Civil Defence use.
Agenda: TBC, usually the weekend before. Please refer to the draft minutes from the May 2017 meeting.
Come to the inaugural working bee for the Pukerua Bay community food forest garden! We will meet and greet at 10 am, go over the site and the garden plans, and figure out where everything is going to go.
On Saturday 27 May 2017 at 10.00am the Heritage Group of Pukerua Bay is celebrating the opening of the new information sign and the new station building. See our post and gallery of photos for more information.
Join us in celebrating the new METLINK station shelter (funded and installed by GWRC), and heritage signs at the Pukerua Bay Railway Station on Saturday the 27th of May at 10am. Mayor Mike Tana will present and open the archway and reveal the new Heritage Sign on the platform. All Pukerua Bay residents and visitors are warmly invited to attend.

Background: The Pukerua Bay Residents Association has worked tirelessly in partnership with Porirua City Council to provide a beautiful new wooden archway and historical information sign.
The timbers used in this sign and the others to be installed, come from the Airlie Road over-bridge which was originally built in 1937 and demolished in 2010.
We invite you to share your memories, memorabilia or materials relating to Pukerua Bay. These will complete the research that has been done so the final map can be drawn. Please contact Margaret Blair on 021 1373 263 or pukeruaheritage@gmail.com.
Porirua City Council have scheduled “Walkalongs” to give Muri Road residents a good feel for the proposed options to improve pedestrian safety. We will meet at the intersection of Muri Road and Sea Vista Drive.
