Waitohu Stream and Dune Care Group Inc
Volunteers who love nature and work together to care for 8 hectares of the Waitohu Stream estuary and dune system at the north end of Ōtaki Beach. This is part of the ‘Waitohu Coast and Key Native Ecosystem’, an area rich in biodiversity where people and nature thrive. It is home to lizards, endangered birds and many threatened or regionally rare plant species. In 1999 we started restoring this unique area to help increase biodiversity and natural protection from coastal erosion and flooding. Our volunteers, who range in age from 7 to 85, work alongside Kapiti Coast District Council environmental restoration officers, in fun and rewarding activities to suit everyone’s interests, level of fitness and capability. Our partners are Kapiti Coast District Council who do the work alongside us, and Greater Wellington Regional Council who fund our nursery work.
