Funding
We provide funding to support landowners, tangata whenua, and schools to carry out environmental activities such as planting, erosion control, monitoring, and more.
The Climate Resilient Communities Fund supports projects that help Northland’s most affected communities withstand our changing climate. Community organisations can apply for funding for projects that build resilience in Te Taitokerau.
Helping landowners with the cost of projects that protect Northland’s environment – like improving water quality and erosion control.
To help keep soil on the land and out of our waterway, we are offering landowner grants for planting and fencing to reduce erosion. Support is available to subsidise land treatments on highly erodible land, including forest planting, poplars and willows for erosion control, and land retirement fencing.
Funding is available for schools to undertake environmental projects in their school grounds or out in the local community. Funding will be provided for projects and initiatives that have positive environmental outcomes
