The New Zealand Plant Conservation Network Award Nominations Close 25th October.
A reminder that we only have a little over three weeks left to honour our plant conservation heroes! The New Zealand Plant Conservation Network (NZPCN) is looking for nominations for their annual awards. These national awards are given annually to recognise an outstanding contribution to the conservation of native plants in New Zealand. Do you know of someone who has a real interest in native plants or a passion for plant conservation (maybe one of your colleagues….or a covenant owner, or a youngster?)…or maybe a community group, a plant nursery or agency who would be a worthy recipient? Please let me know! The Awards will be presented at the NZPCN conference in Wellington in November.
If you don’t have anyone in mind for a nomination then I’d also really appreciate if you could send this reminder on to your networks so we can acknowledge the efforts people in our communities who working hard to conserve our native flora. I’ve attached a nomination form to fill in or for further circulation – please email back to me (nominations close 25th October). If you have any questions I’d welcome a call on the numbers below.
Thanks in advance,
Catherine Beard
