Vegetation fliers - for Overhanging or on the Footpath, Trees and Shrubs
We have a green flyer that you can place in people's letterboxes asking them to cut back vegetation that is a footpath obstacle.
You can order Vegetation Fliers by email to: accounts [at] livingstreets.org.nz.
Councils and other organisations can order print runs with their logo included. Or find a sponsor and we can get them printed for you with your sponsor's name.
Vegetation Flyers are available free to members and individuals at local meetings or we can send small numbers to members direct. Larger numbers by arrangement.
