Trees for Survival: host a school planting

馃嚦馃嚳 New Zealand 路 Trees for Survival Charitable Trust

Native plants at no cost, planted by a local school on your riparian or eroding retired land

Landowners can host a Trees for Survival school planting day. A local facilitator visits to assess the site, the school grows the native plants, and students plant them in winter. The landowner fences and prepares the site, hosts the planting day and maintains the plantings for two years; the plants themselves are free.

Who qualifies

New Zealand landowners with riparian areas or steep, eroding retired farmland suitable for native restoration, able to fence and prepare the site and maintain it for two years.
