PFK Community Toolshed
Help make your patch pest free by
borrowing the right equipment
PFK’s Community Toolshed helps the people of Kaipātiki tackle weeds, plant natives, and fight predators by providing resources and training.
Drop by to borrow weeding tools and safety gear. We have small sickles perfect for cutting ginger and moth plant, metgel herbicide, loppers, and more. Don't forget to bring back your tools when you are done, including empty gel bottles! We refill them as they are expensive.
In certain areas, you may be eligible to borrow free predator control equipment - but we will ask you in exchange to record your predator control work - i.e what you catch or how much bait is eaten.
If you would like to volunteer to help out at the PFK Community Toolshed, please contact us.
If you're not able to donate your time, please consider making a donation, such as the cost of a coffee, to help fund our Tool Shed and support the amazing volunteers.
