Our partners
The Million Trees project has been an enormous effort from many people and organisations, and it would not have been possible without the support of our key partners.
Department of Corrections
Through its prisons and community offender services in the Auckland region, Department of Corrections provides:
- labour to assist with site preparation, planting and maintenance
- nursery space to enable us to grow the necessary stock.
Trees That Count
Trees That Count will count all the trees that the council intends to plant.
Our partnership will promote the need to plant native trees across the Auckland region and use technology and innovation to support the ongoing collection of monitoring data.
Ongoing work
Planting work is happening in Auckland through:
- local boards
- iwi
- schools
- service and social sector groups
- private entities
- farmers
- the council group
- New Zealand Transport Association
- developers.
1.5 Million Trees
Mayor Goff has committed to planting a further 1.5 million native trees during his second term (2019-2022). Due to impacts of COVID, details of planting dates and timelines are still being determined.
