Native Forest Restoration Trust

Native Forest Restoration Trust

Founded in 1980, the New Zealand Native Forests Restoration Trust is an organisation involved in forest restoration.

Since then, the Trust has acquired land at the rate of 250 ha per year to protect important species, restore their habitats and to improve the quality of waterways. It now has 25 reserves throughout the North Island with a total of nearly 6,000 ha of protected native forests.

Sir Edmund Hillary was the patron of the trust.
