  • Work alongside the awesome local community—like Kirikiriroa Marae, Knighton School, and ATC Training Corps—while planting a stunning mixed podocarp forest.
  • Help build a green 'bush corridor' that connects the city to the river, making Hamilton a little more eco-friendly!
  • Dive into the cool world of harakeke/flax with the 'Rene Orchiston' collection, perfect for anyone interested in Māori traditional weaving.
