Halfmoon Bay Habitat Restoration Project

Provider: Stewart Island/ Rakiura Community and Environment Trust

Region: Southland

Duration

Ongoing

Description

Bringing native species, which have been threatened with extinction, back into our backyards, local walks and along our beaches. This project provides protection for taonga/ treasured species around the one main township on Stewart Island, allowing them to thrive. Through this project, we have been able to bring species which have disappeared from the area over time, back home.

Volunteering opportunties include working with staff and other volunteers to restore habitat, remove pest species or monitor the project results. We also work closely with other organisations where our goals coincide.
