John decided to extend the wooden fence from the back of the new(ish) house at Struan Farm, effectively enlarging this QEII Trust bush area to incorporate a second grove of tawas. This protects these trees, along with a particularly majestic rimu tree (or two), from the grazing stock, and allows the undergrowth to regenerate.
Nephew Mike has been on the job this past week, and it's starting to look good. A messy patch of ink week has been removed, we'll now plant kowhais, rimu, totara and other natives to fill in. We're (somewhat jokingly) calling this "the kowhai grove at Tawa II."
