Our Mission:
As a community, to restore, enhance and protect the Upper Taiari/Taieri catchment.
The Upper Taiari/Taieri Scroll plain in the beautiful Māniatoto/Maniototo basin is one of the most unique river environments in the Southern Hemisphere.
It's home to many rare and endangered native species and is an important traditional mahika kai (food-gathering) site for Kāi Tahu.

We assist landowners to fence and plant wetland and riparian areas. We also protect native fish habitat, enhance recreation areas and undertake weed control.

Plants in the Ground
Kilometres fenced
As part of the project we built a nursery in Patearoa to help us establish and propagate plants suited to our harsh Central Otago environment.
We fenced, irrigated and bought in small plants by the 1000's and have a nursery team to care for them before they go out to our partner farms.
