Welcome to the March newsletter, and I hope you are all enjoying this Indian summer.

Altimarloch Vineyard is situated in the mid Awatere Valley Marlborough. The former sheep farm has been converted on the terraces to productive vineyard but amongst this are wetlands and escarpments that the management of Altimarloch wish to restore.

We were sent some photos from Vicki Smith, an artist and environmentalist who is currently working with South Westland school on a restoration project.

Over the last two years FuturEcology Ltd has been working with the Kidson and Ussher families on their Wakapuaka properties after they were successful in 2020 in gaining funding for a large scale planting and restoration project along the banks and tributaries of the river.

FuturEcology Ltd has been contracted to restore an area on Rough Island for Tasman District Council and Waimea Water. The aim is to convert former pine forest land to coastal lowland forest.

EmGuards™ will be on display at the North Island Nursery Trade Day at the Claudelands Arena Events Centre, Gate 4, Brooklyn Rd, Hamilton.
