The Landcare Nursery is located at 57 Haranui Road, South Head and is open by appointment to all South Head residents.

Here you can access locally sourced and grown native plants at a low-cost, with all income generated going towards supporting South Kaipara Landcare projects.

20,000 Plants a Year

The nursery is a social enterprise and an important part of the Landcare organisation that enables us to carry out our projects in South Head for the benefit of residents, the environment, and of course the bird life.

Seed is sourced locally and grown at the nursery by volunteers and supplies up to 20,000 plants a year for restoration projects in the area and also enables local landowners to plant with locally sourced plants.

Pricing & Opening Hours

Our prices are deliberately low so that as many locals as possible can get access to native seedlings and plants.

Update 22 April 2023. We are winding down the nursery operation so contact Elon (see below) as plants are offered to locals first before a bulk purchse from KMR (kaipara Moana Remediation).
