We are a community based organisation providing environmental education and nature restoration services located on the North Shore, Auckland. We offer a wide range of environmental talks, workshops and support for the public, and education programmes for schools and groups. Call us to request a speaker for your club, event or group. We also organise volunteer days for groups and companies - come and get your hands dirty planting trees or weeding - all materials, training and fun provided. Our resources are available to the general public, schools and community groups on a number of topics such as waste minimisation, storm water, pollution, mangroves, pests and predators, flora and fauna, noxious weeds and plant propagation. Get involved! As a community based organisation, we rely on volunteers and members (only $10 per year: membership).

'Bush Walk & Talk' is a series of five 2 hour educational walks aimed at enabling people to identify New Zealand native trees, plants and flowers as part of a comfortable stroll in a small, social group.
Presented by Margi Keys from Discovery Walks, the programme is offered through Kaipatiki Project (www.kaipatiki.org.nz). Each week a different North Shore bush reserve is explored - there is opportunity to stop and identify species as well as discuss the surroundings.
The series costs $50 for five Saturday morning walks. Walks take place rain or shine so bring a raincoat, sturdy shoes/boots as well as water to drink.
Places are limited to 12 people so booking is essential by phoning 09 482 1172 or email admin@kaipatiki.org.nz.
