Do Something Tree-Warding - Donate a Tree to Help Our Waterways
Native trees planted near waterways act like a natural sieve, helping to filter out excess nutrients before they can enter water. They also help to prevent soil erosion, reduce greenhouse gases, and provide shade and habitats for native birds, fish, and insects.
Every tree planted makes a difference, so donate a tree to Trees That Count to add to the virtual forest – ready for the 2020 planting season.
Trees That Count will let you know where your tree (or trees) will be planted. You can also like The Vision is Clear on Facebook or follow us on Instagram for more updates on Tree-warding.
Trees That Count and The Vision is Clear will organise planting events to benefit waterways in the next planting season. The Hits will be there and they'd love lots of New Zealanders to join us too!
Do Something Tree-warding is an initiative by The Vision is Clear to inspire all Kiwis to get involved in looking after New Zealand’s rivers, streams, lakes and beaches
Trees That Count is a conservation charity on a mission to see millions more native trees planted throughout New Zealand
It all adds up to healthier waterways, so do something Tree-warding and donate a tree today!
Native trees really are Tree-warding - they help filter out excess nutrients, prevent soil erosion, reduce greenhouse gases, and provide shade and habitat for birds, fish and insects. So donate a tree for just $10 and help support healthy waterways!
If you’re a business wanting to contribute, or would like to make a bigger donation and receive a donation receipt for tax purposes, donate directly at Trees That Count

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
