We planted over 240,000 native plants, changing the landscape throughout the Pomahaka for years to come. Now when you drive around the catchment you'll see native plants adding biodiversity and protecting stream health throughout the catchment. We're so thankful for the funding and opportunity to undertake such a significant project.
Riparian Planting Project
The Pomahaka Water Care Group were successful in obtaining funding from the Provisional Growth Fund and One Billion Trees to fence and plant 100 kilometres of stream edge throughout the Pomahaka River catchment.
Fencing began in late winter 2020, with planting starting late October 2020.
The project was completed in September 2023.
To get a sense of the breadth of the project we put together a infographic with some of the key achievements. We've also included a few videos and photos for you to enjoy.
