GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO NATURE
Working together with the amazing landowner at Alphaburn Station and alongside The Wanaka catchment group, we're striving to leave these beautiful festival grounds, better than we found them. That's why we've bought together this native restoration initiative...
Donate what you can and leave your legacy. Grow new life, restore heritage and create bird habitats. Off-set your presence with the gift of nature. Year 1, saw us raise $500 and our initial target is $4,000
