Native habitat restoration
Over its 20+ years The Trust’s keen local volunteers have planted thousands and thousands of native trees, shrubs and grasses in habitats ranging from salt marsh to wetland to forest, enhancing existing ecosystems and in some places re-establishing them.
We work to enhance existing ecosystems and in some places re-establish them.
Weeding programmes target invasive species such as ginger, wattle, pampas grass, banana passionfruit, tobacco weed and japanese honeysuckle. Current projects include the ongoing restoration of the Piproa Te Wahapu catchment wetlands in partnership with Living Waters BOI and ginger removal in the Kororareka Reserve by local residents.
