It was a grand team effort last Tuesday morning to get new pohutakawas in the ground by the jetty at the end of Bow St.
Whaingaroa Harbour Care has donated three carefully selected eight-year-old pohutakawas to enhance the picnic area so that locals and visitors can enjoy the shade and beauty they will provide.
The trees come from seed that originates from Kawhia pohutakawa that Tainui waka were once tied up to.
Given the significance of the moment, Fred Lichtwark and the boys from Harbour Care got the local tamariki involved in the process.
