FORESTRY OWNERS

Delivering on a green promise.

Ready-to-grow, wind-hardened seedlings delivered to anywhere your planting is. Anywhere.

We are Kauri Park - seedling providers for New Zealand forestry lots with a significant point of difference - we deliver on our promise. Literally. For clients that work us with we promise the perfect balance of product and passion - potted, wind-hardened, ready-to-plant seedlings produced to scale and delivered to your planting site - and a genuine passion to see those seedlings thrive to maturity. We are a family-owned business that lives and breathes plants, people and communities.

Whether it is regenerating forestry ecosystems or planting native forest vegetation, we invest heavily in people, communities and technology to meet the expectations of our growing partners.

We grow for you.
We really do.

Our plants

We grow pinus radiata and eucalyptus varieties from hand-selected genetics  -  from seed to ready-to-plant. Each seedling's growth journey is designed for growth assurity and includes a wind-hardening process at our Waipu and Palmerston North nurseries. Our plants are container grown so have a full planting season availability.

Growing people and communities

We see the link between healthy plants, prosperous businesses and thriving communities. We’re proudly integrated into our local communities and have had the privilege to work with iwi and community-invested groups to affect positive change through growing plants.

Our capabilities

We’ve invested heavily in growing quality plants in quantity with state-of-the-art automation. This ensures that the large volume required in large planting projects can be met. We also have a fleet of trucks, each carrying 108,000 seedlings (truck and trailer) to deliver your seedlings on site anywhere in NZ.

Our growing know-how

We’re a family-owned business that has invested our lives into plants - an investment bordering on obsession. We know plants. Trust us. If you’re planting for either carbon forestry or harvest, 1ha - 1000ha, we work with you to meet your specific project expectations.

  • Improved genetics

  • Wind hardened for growth assurity

  • Potted plants improves survival rates by 90%

  • Delivered by our fleet of trucks anywhere in NZ means your planting gangs can stay on site 

Let's grow. Together.

At Kauri Park we deliver on our promise. If seeing not only your forestry investment thrive but communities flourish is important to you, call us to talk to our forestry specialists.

We’re easy to deal with. That’s another promise.
