Native trees are awesome for climbing, jumping, swinging, and hiding in. And sometimes falling out of...
Native trees improve our mental wellbeing and health. Studies show that adults and kids who spend more time in nature are healthier physically and emotionally.
Native trees can live for thousands of years. They keep thriving and adding to Aotearoa's indigenous biodiversity.
Native trees store carbon from our atmosphere and help reduce the effects of climate change.
Native trees provide homes for our native birds, bees, lizards and insects. The survival of some of our most precious native species relies on having native trees to feed on and live in. And our forests, gardens and local reserves provide the best outdoor classrooms in the world!
Our native forests provide learning opportunities at many levels of education, and there is evidence that some forms of learning are enhanced in natural settings.
Native trees are culturally and spiritually important to us. The positive impact native forests have is vitally important to the mauri (life force) of our ecosystems. They are helping us in our role as kaitiaki.
