OUR PARTNERS
SUPPORTING THE LAND & CONNECTING WITH THE COMMUNITY
A COMMUNITY THAT CARES
Joining Biobonds isn’t just about planting trees – it’s about being part of a community that cares for the land and the people who nurture it.
Every project we take on is powered by a network of passionate partners: from local nurseries supplying seedlings, to planting crews getting their hands in the soil, and iwi guiding us in restoring native forests.
When you invest in BioBonds, you’re supporting more than just land restoration. You’re supporting the people who make it happen—people who dedicate their skills, time, and passion to building a greener, healthier future. Together, we create meaningful impact, protecting waterways, boosting biodiversity, and strengthening the communities around us.
We’re proud to work with partners who share our vision, and we celebrate every tree planted, every hectare restored, and every local job supported.
AUCKLAND COUNCIL
Auckland Council’s ‘Sustainable Outcomes’ programme aims to embed sustainability across Healthy Waters, focusing on four pillars: social, environmental, economic, and cultural. Under the environmental pillar, improving water quality is a key objective.
Sedimentation from land use is a major issue across the Auckland region, and one of the most effective solutions is planting native trees on steep, unproductive farmland. This not only reduces sediment runoff but also restores native biodiversity and captures carbon from the atmosphere.
BioBonds aligns with all four sustainability pillars, enabling the planting of native forests on highly erodible land, retiring it from unsustainable practices, and boosting biodiversity. Local labour is used for planting and propagation, supporting jobs and the local economy. Through these strategic partnerships, BioBonds helps advance environmental goals while also contributing to the social and economic well-being of the community.
THE KAURI TEAM
The Kauri Park team propagates over 20 million native tree and shrub seedlings each year, providing partners with the resources needed to restore forests large and small. Nature is their guide, and their approach reflects deep knowledge.
This family-run team of ‘ecovitalists’ establishes thousands of hectares of new forests annually, creating living legacies for future generations of New Zealanders.
Since 2021, Kauri Park has partnered with Tāmata Hills to supply 100% of the native seedlings for BioBonds projects, supporting the restoration and protection of New Zealand’s unique forests for generations to come.
