An essential part of successful restoration is caring for the plants after the hard work of planting is done.
Please join us for plant releasing mornings around the Waimea Inlet. It’s a great chance to revisit some of the Battle for the Banded Rail planting sites, meet other like minded plant carers and have a cuppa and a chat (at the Sunday releasing events).
A 200-hectare block of land at Pūponga Farm Park, previously used for farming, is set to become a biodiversity hotspot, thanks to a new restoration project led by HealthPost Nature Trust in partnership with DOC, Manawhenua ki Mohua, and Pest Free Onetahua.
My first job after I graduated with an ecology-based degree in 1965 was with the Wildlife Service, an ancestor of DOC. On my first day at work, I was summoned to meet the director, who congratulated me on being the first woman scientist to join the Service.
