2024 has started with plenty of activity on Motutapu - and it will only increase over the year!

Over summer, we were delighted to welcome plenty of visitors to the Reid Homestead in Home Bay - thank you for your contributions through your purchases and donations to our restoration project.      

Our Wednesday and Sunday volunteers are always busy with plenty of work in the nursery preparing for the winter planting season and the never-ending weed control in the growing forest. THANK YOU to all our regular and occasional volunteers - none of it could happen without you.

Corporate groups play a big part in our volunteer work too. Willing workers from 12 companies have escaped the office to join us already this year, including a large group from Inzide - read more below.

And of course, the 2024 John West DUAL on 6 April. Although this is the last DUAL to be held on Motutapu and Rangitoto, everyone agrees it was a fantastic event.
