Descripción
Our property is on the shore of the Waimea Inlet near Māpua. The estuary is home to many wading birds and much of our work is restoring the intertidal estuary margin and regenerating coastal forest. Our project is to increase numbers of endangered wading birds by restoring their natural habitat and trapping predators. We also have an ever expanding vegetable garden and home orchard.
