The Derwent Catchment Project runs a large native plant nursery behind the Resource Centre in Hamilton. We have a range of hardy native species selected for shelterbelt and revegetation projects. The natives are grown and hardened to local conditions.
The nursery isn’t staffed every day, so if you’d like to place an order or visit the nursery please contact Nursery Manager Karen:
