At Tasman Environmental Trust, our vision is a landscape rich with healthy, diverse ecosystems—thriving from the mountains to the sea.
We work alongside local community conservation groups to increase their impact, offering support, visibility, and access to specialist skills and resources. Whether it’s connecting individuals to meaningful projects, or linking groups with like-minded organisations, we’re here to help great ideas take root and grow.
With decades of experience and a strong network that spans iwi, funders, and local and central government, we support both large-scale restoration efforts and the small, dedicated groups caring for their local stream, valley, or coastline.
Together, we’re building a future where nature and community flourish side by side.
