Greening Marlborough
IF NOTHING ELSE, the 1990 commemoration will leave a legacy of thousands of trees planted around the country, thanks to generous funding by the 1990 Commission. Marlborough branch members played their part through a "Greening of Marlborough Project." Areas adjacent to the main highway between Blenheim and Picton were planted with cabbage trees, akeake, kowhai, flax and other native plants. Pictured are Marlborough branch members Margaret Peace (left) and John Watson in an area of swamp whose native forest surround was logged out 40 years ago.
