What an incredible end to the planting season! Volunteers and partners joined for final plantings at Spa Park, Hipapatua, and Whakaipō Bay, helping restore our local environment.

What does it look like for a community to ‘always be naturing’? After 10 years of Kids Greening Taupō, Media and Communications Advisor Krysia Nowak finds out.

Kids Greening Taupō’s 10th birthday on Saturday (September 20) at Spa Park was an opportunity for those who helped establish the organisation and those running it now to muse on how it had survived and its success today.

Power Planting 2025. Growing Partnerships and Native Forests 🌿

To celebrate Matariki 2025, Greening Taupō was proud to support the Tauhara Collective for the second Matariki ki te Maunga event

This week for Our Changing World, we're doing things a little differently and we catch up with Claire Concannon in person! Claire has been out and about in the central North Island learning about a community conservation project.

On 9 December 1982, a helicopter accident on Mt Ruapehu claimed five lives. Two years later, a living memorial, the Tongariro Natural History Society, was established in their honour. Today, more than 40 years later, the work of this group continues.

During a Wicked Weeders session, we welcomed RNZ’s Claire Concannon, who joined us to see our restoration work in action and later shared our stories on Our Changing World.

The lower slopes of Mt Tauhara are getting a lot aroha with hundreds of children planting 6000 trees as part of a huge restoration project.
