If you are looking for help with the cost of native restoration planting, there are several options currently available:
Every year we seek applications from landowners and community groups who would like our assistance with planting native seedlings on their property. Applications open in April and are then assessed by Te Ara Kākāriki in June, with successful applicants planting the following year.
To apply to Te Ara Kākāriki for assistance see our Plant Your Property page for more information by clicking the below button.
Please note we only fund projects where Te Ara Kākāriki will be involved in the planning process.
Apply for a grant from the Selwyn Natural Environment Fund which has been set up by Selwyn District Council.
Apply for trees to plant through Trees That Count and register previously planted trees as well.
We really value everyone’s input and support into helping us achieve our goals. Whatever you can do to help will be really appreciated and will make a positive difference.
Simply fill out the form and send us a message and we can then start the ball rolling.
Te Ara Kākāriki Greenway Canterbury Trust is an incorporated Charitable Trust with the goal of increasing biodiversity in Canterbury.
Our mission is to create a ‘Greenway’ – a corridor of native biodiversity Greendots between the Waimakiriri and Rakaia rivers, linking the mountains to the sea Ki uta ki tai.
We’ll send you regular updates on planting days and other useful news (we will not share your details with third parties)
