Hugh Wilson, botantist, ardent cyclist and the inspiration behind Hinewai Reserve!

New Zealand School of Food & Wine

Hugh Wilson, the renowned Canterbury botanist who has also written a number of books about New Zealand plants has spent the last 30 years overseeing the regeneration of 1500 hectares of gorse-ridden hill country farmland to native bush. High above Akaroa, and over the crater rim, you can visit Hinewai Reserve and discover numerous species of ferns, regenerating totara, hear the bird song, find the 47 known waterfalls or even better, hike the 3 day Banks Peninsula Banks Track, New Zealand track.
Celia Hay, Director of New Zealand School of Food and Wine dropped to visit Hugh and get an update on edible native plants and berries.

Hugh mentioned a new documentary on the transformation of Hinewai and now free on You tube.

It's inspirational.

And another website!

Jack from Ponsonby

Hi again team, it's Jack.

We also got Sports Physio NZ's website done too this week. It was so fun working with Tanya Browne, the owner of the clinic, because she cares so much about her target market of atheletic youngins which is so inspiring.

She does her best to relate to people our age which is so fun to see, that's why we had to do our absolute best to bring out her gen-Z side with the website.

Another website done for a small business in Auckland.

Jack from Ponsonby

Hey team,
It's Jack here.

My friend Otis and I just finished up a website for an on-the-comeup spa called Victorian Bali Spas. Sam and Loli, the owners, are incredibly nice and gave us the amazing opportunity to renovate their existing Wix website which was too expensive.

It was so cool to see the inside of the ponsonby branch of Victorian Spas and to get to see what's behind the curtains...
