GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO NATURE

Working together with the landowners at Alphaburn Station, Patch Landscape NZ and heaps of local legends, we're striving to leave these beautiful grounds better than we found them, that's why we've bought together this restoration initiative. In March 2025 we planted our first installation of 500 native species, thanks to a number of generous donations and volunteers.

...BE PART OF THE CHANGE...

Donate what you can and leave your legacy. Watch new life grow, restore heritage and create new wildlife habitats. Off-set your presence with the gift of nature.
