1000 Native Trees planted 2024-25
My big project for 2024-25 is to get 1000 native trees planted in New Zealand.
I have three different options for businesses to get involved in. These are 1) art team building for employees, 2) getting some great art for the walls or 3) various sponsoring options. Whichever option you choose, a contribution towards planting native trees will be made.
Send me an email if you are interested in hearing more about how your business can help do something good for the environment next year.
