Waipoua Forest Trust

Waipoua Forest Trust

Planting kauri forest ecosystems on previously cleared land that shares boundaries with the ancient Waipoua Forest.

Northland

The Waipoua Forest is an ancient ecosystem and one of the largest areas of kauri still surviving today. The reserves that make up the Waipoua Forest Trust border the northern & southern edges of the Waipoua Forest. At WFT our aim is to protect, promote and restore the kauri ecosystem of the Waipoua Forest by creating forest buffer zones to protect the Waipoua from the onset of climate change, create wildlife corridors to promote the distribution of wildlife and restore the forest ecosystem through landscape scale native regeneration planting programs.

More about us

The Waipoua Forest is an ancient ecosystem and one of the largest areas of Kauri still surviving today. The reserves that make up the Waipoua Forest Trust border the northern and southern edges of the Waipoua Forest. The Trust is situated on the West Coast of Northland, New Zealand.

Our main work at the Waipoua Forest Trust is to regenerate previously cleared land that borders the Waipoua Forest.  Our goal is to protect and restore this Kauri ecosystem at a landscape scale. The challenges of Kauri die-back disease, introduced pest species & the onset of climate change makes our work more important than ever.
