Kia whakatōmuri te haere whakamua
I walk backwards into the future with my eyes fixed on the past.
For the first month of 2025, we want to spend some time reflecting on our top moments.

#3 Launching Partnering for Nature
Partnering with Priority One and Bay Conservation Alliance to launch Partnering for Nature which aims to connect businesses to key biodiversity work in our region!
69% of Aotearoa New Zealanders don't think businesses are doing enough to reduce environmental impact, and 38% of people actively seek out companies that invest in nature... so let's make it happen.
#2 Business Investment in the KMRP
Wairere Mahi secured business investment from Matariki Rayoneir Forests for a new project at Killarney Lakes.
This is the FIRST business investment in the Kaimai Mamaku Restoration Project and we can't wait to replicate this model with our other tīma!
#1 He tangata! He tangata! He tangata!
Without a doubt, the highlight of 2024 was the people, the people, the people!
The Kaimai Mamaku Restoration Project is filled with the most amazing, motivated and incredibly hard working people in conservation.
