The Kauri Rescue Blog

We caught up with Sarah Bishop, one of our fabulous volunteer ambassadors, to surprise her with a thank you hamper.

We are embarking on a research project with one of our landowners who is losing many of the puriri on his property to what appears to be a Phytophthora infection.

We’ve just launched a new video on the Welcome Page of our website as a brief introduction to who we are.

It’s human nature to want to help protect kauri, believes Dr Ian Horner.
A leading plant pathologist in New Zealand, Ian helped set up the citizen science project Kauri Rescue, which uses science and community action to help save kauri trees from the deadly kauri dieback disease.

Fantastic couple of days spent with the Te Uri o Hau Environs team Te Uri o Hau Environs recently. We are supporting them to help produce a phosphite treatment management plan for their maunga Pukekaroro in Kaiwaka.
