For sustainable living, regenerating native biodiversity and learning opportunities about environmental sustainability, Kaipātiki Project makes it easy to live well within our Earth's limits.

Based on Auckland’s North, we operate a thriving native plant nursery and facilitate native ngahere, stream and estuary regeneration. Engage in meaningful conservation volunteering at our nursery, teaching garden and broader regeneration projects. Expand your knowledge through practical education and join our diverse events on sustainable living for all age groups.

Embrace zero waste initiatives and explore our native plant list for bulk purchases. Unlock corporate volunteering & sponsorship opportunities, become a member, and collaborate with us to build a greener world.

We believe that by working together, we can restore our native plants, birds, bugs and fish and regenerate the planet.
