Weedbusters

What is Weedbusters?

Weedbusters is about encouraging all New Zealanders to:

LOOK out for ways you can get involved.

LEARN about invasive weeds near you. Weed issues are unique to each area, so find out what problem plants are in your area and how to control them.

ACT Replace invasive weeds in your garden with non-invasive alternatives. Dispose of weed waste wisely - never toss it over the fence, down the bank or into a reserve.

GET WEEDBUSTING! Look out for events and weedbuster days near you or create your own weedbuster event.

Weedbusters can offer support, advice, small amounts of funding, promote your working bees, and host networking events.
