Trees for June Babies

Parents of babies born in June 2002 in Palmerston North received a native tree to be planted in their children’s honour.  Where practical, the trees were delivered by a Green Bike trailer. Once the trees are established, they will provide beauty, shade, shelter, and enhance the environment.
