The 2025 Trees for Survival planting season is well underway with 66,398 native plants in the ground - and counting! Thanks to the incredible efforts of 2,920 students, who have rolled up their sleeves across 74 planting days since May, we’re heading towards our biggest tally to date. Our top six species planted so far this season are: Ti Kōuka (15,875), Karamū (14,292), Mānuka (10,701), Harakeke / Flax (10,540), Cyperus (4,074), Kānuka (3,992). That’s more than just numbers — it’s real impact: protecting waterways, restoring habitats, stabilising soil, and empowering students through action-based learning. Let’s keep planting!
