About Us
Our Approach
Plant native, conserve water, protect habitat, involve people, and keep caring.
From planning to long-term care
A general outline of how restoration work is approached. Project-specific details are published on each project page once confirmed.
Step 1: Understand the site
Look at slope, soil, water flow, existing vegetation and threats before deciding what to do.
Step 2: Plant native species
Choose trees, shrubs and grasses suited to local conditions and plant at the right time of year.
Step 3: Conserve water and soil
Use structures such as bunds and tanks to slow runoff and retain moisture.
Step 4: Protect biodiversity and seed
Restore habitat layers and keep locally adapted seed available.
Step 5: Involve the community
Invite residents, schools, colleges and organisations to take part safely.
Step 6: Maintain and monitor
Water, protect and check young plants; inspect structures; keep records.
Measuring impact honestly
We count what can be counted and observe what can be observed. Plant counts, survival rates, structures built and species recorded are reported only when they are supported by records. Water recharge or similar results are never estimated without credible data.
Expected outcomes in proposals are always shown separately from results that have actually been achieved.
