Plant more natives: seedling giveaway

Across Tāmaki Makaurau

Join a regionwide movement this June 

Help grow the city’s ngahere by planting a free native seedling at home!

Through Auckland Council’s Plant More Natives campaign, community nurseries across Tāmaki Makaurau will be giving away thousands of native plants.

Come along for friendly advice and inspiration to help you bring more birdsong and biodiversity back into your neighbourhood. Limit of 1 native seedling per household.

Throughout the month, participating nurseries will host open day events where you can:

• meet local experts
• learn how to care for your seedlings
• discover how native planting connects to wider ecological restoration efforts.

Planting even a single native species at home is a small action that collectively strengthens wildlife habitats, improves environmental health and deepens our connection to the natural world.
