Our Expertise

Revegetation

Drawing on our deep horticultural and ecological expertise, EcoTerra works with landowners, iwi, conservation organisations, councils, developers, and commercial/civil organisations to design and deliver effective land restoration projects. We provide end-to-end revegetation solutions that rebuild healthy, resilient native and endemic landscapes — from site preparation and species selection to planting and ongoing maintenance. Our work is rooted in best-practice ecology and long-term sustainability, ensuring every project thrives and contributes meaningfully to restored biodiversity.

Erosion Mitigation

EcoTerra provides comprehensive erosion mitigation services designed to stabilise vulnerable land and protect natural and built environments. We assess soil conditions, hydrology, vegetation cover, and site-specific risks to develop practical, science-based solutions tailored to each landscape.

Our team implements a range of techniques — including engineered stabilisation, strategic planting, sediment control measures, and regenerative land management practices — to reduce erosion, prevent sediment runoff, and enhance slope stability. By combining ecological understanding with innovative restoration methods, we not only safeguard soil, waterways, and infrastructure, but also create the conditions for long-term natural regeneration and healthier ecosystems.

Waterway & Wetland Restoration

Healthy waterways and wetlands are vital to the ecological resilience of Aotearoa. EcoTerra specialises in restoring streams, rivers, wetlands, and riparian zones through a combination of ecological expertise, cultural awareness, and practical on-the-ground restoration techniques.

We work to improve water quality, rebuild habitat structure, reduce sedimentation, and reconnect landscapes so that natural systems can function as they should. Our approach supports healthier catchments, thriving native species, and long-term environmental stability.

Planting Plans

Successful restoration begins with a well-designed planting plan. EcoTerra creates tailored, site-specific planting plans that reflect the unique character, challenges, and ecological needs of each location. Whether the goal is to restore native bush, stabilise erosion-prone areas, rehabilitate riparian margins, or enhance biodiversity, our plans provide a clear roadmap for achieving long-term success.

We integrate ecological science, practical field experience, and local environmental knowledge to select the right species, in the right places, for the right reasons.
