Kaipātiki Project Native Plant Nursery

What they do

• Eco-sourced [[native-plant-nursery|native plant nursery]] — tens of thousands of plants annually
• 80+ native species — trees, shrubs, groundcover, grasses, ferns, climbers, palms
• Chemical-free kaupapa — explicit regenerative-principle alignment
• Community-volunteer model — combined staff and volunteer effort
• Te Aka Kōtuia member — [[tamaki-makaurau|Auckland]]‘s network of community native nurseries
• Plant Pass biosecurity work — moving toward formal kauri-dieback-safe certification
• Education central — learning is described as crucial to the work

Why it’s listed

A community nursery operating two sites and growing 80+ species at the tens-of-thousands scale, all on volunteer and small-staff effort, is the operational shape eco-sourcing was designed for. The chemical-free kaupapa moves it past most retail native nurseries elsewhere — it’s not just native plants, it’s native plants grown without inputs that would compromise the very ecosystems being restored. The Te Aka Kōtuia membership signals participation in the wider [[tamaki-makaurau|Auckland]] Council-supported network of 60+ iwi and community nurseries, which is the regional infrastructure [[directory|the directory]] wants to surface.
