Community conservation in action. Help us save Coromandel kiwi

OMG this is so amazing to see 👀💚 We thought these OMG this is so amazing to see 👀💚 We thought these pōhutukawa were dead. They are silver ghost trees, visible from the water along the coast, and when we put in traps through this area targeting possums two years ago, we didn't ever imagine they would be able to recover. Can you see these bursts of green leaves? They are coming back! It's just one tree so far, but...
There's hope

We're overwhelmed with gratitude. Your donations t We're overwhelmed with gratitude. Your donations to help us with our vehicle woes over the past few months have really lifted our spirits. We appreciate everyone who is helping to keep us on the road and our boots on the ground!

Ok so we don't often show the reality of pest cont Ok so we don't often show the reality of pest control. It means death for those animals that are running rampant in Aotearoa without any natural predators. We have to take on the job of a predator, and thanks to an amazing team effort, we are now able to put new traps into areas that are being stripped by possum browsing. A great result at trap checks today!
Thanks for funding @ourwaikato and @powerco.nz  for contributing to this vital work 💚

This engaging talk will also feature some fun videos highlighting different kororā projects.

We look forward to welcoming Elvisa to town on Sunday 13 Sept at 5pm at the Pepper Tree Restaurant. Come enjoy a drink and a fascinating discussion!

We've been fundraising for our beloved, untrusty t We've been fundraising for our beloved, untrusty trusty steed. We need a new vehicle to get all the jobs done... from delivering traps, plants, eggs (for bait), and helping at community events, for when there are tracks to cut and rat lines to service. We need something reliable on these rough roads in northern Coromandel. Thank you so much to Diprose Miller Community Fund for getting us started with a generous grant. If you can help us out with donations big or small we'd love you to get in touch, check out our website or follow the link in the comments.
Thank you Team!!

Waiting for rain 🌧️. This earthstar fungi was enco Waiting for rain 🌧️. This earthstar fungi was encountered on a trapping trail last week. When they first appear they resemble a small egg, then their outer layer splits open and folds back like a star. The spherical spore-containing structure sits in the centre of the star. When raindrops hit, spores are released through a hole in its top.
Good weather for earthstars today! ✨
