Be a Kaipātiki Business Tree Champion!
Calling all businesses! We are on the look-out for local businesses within Kaipātiki who are keen to contribute to the vision of a green and flourishing environment for staff, customers and the wider community by planting trees on your property!
Here at Pest Free Kaipātiki, we support our local community to restore and protect the natural environment, creating a world where people and the environment flourish together.
Increasing green cover in our urban environment brings with it a myriad of far-reaching benefits that accumulate to be much greater than the sum of its parts. Beyond direct and immediate benefits, effects of plantings can have long lasting impacts reaching beyond local areas and contribute to building a resilient future.

PFK Corporate Packages
Join PFK in the beautiful local reserves of Kaipātiki as we rescue native trees from invasive weeds and prepare planting sites. Our working bees are both enjoyable and fulfilling, offering a fantastic opportunity to give back to your environment and community.
Pest Free Kaipātiki offers a range of tailored packages to meet the needs of your team. Each package includes a guided walk, an introduction to the ecology and history of the host reserve, and a work session staffed by knowledgeable team members, including inspiring environmental information and education. All tools and equipment are provided.
Benefits to your Team
-
A fun day of outdoor, physical work gives you a break from sedentary, office-based work. Learn about Aotearoa’s unique, native flora and fauna and what you can do to support them to thrive.
-
Connect and enjoy social time with your team. Working outdoors together is a great way to grow relationships, break down silos and hierarchies and come closer as a team.
-
Support healthy habits, physical and mental wellbeing by taking a day out from the stresses of your projects and KPIs.
-
Tell the story of your environmental and socially responsible volunteering – bring your comms team and your cameras and let your stakeholders know about the good work you are doing in your community.
-
We make it easy for you by providing the equipment, expertise and organisation necessary to enjoy a relaxing and low-stress volunteer day.
Our Team Experience Packages
The heart of PFK is our volunteer base. Did you know that our regular working bees and volunteering events are run by the volunteers themselves? So when we organise and run a volunteering team event for you, our staff take the time to organise, plan and run a special day geared to your team's interests. There are costs for us associated with the time we spend in communications, planning, preparing and delivering your special day out.
We offer half-day and full-day packages. Prices are worked out based on the size of your group, with the option of organising a team lunch at the reserve or at Puāwai, PFK’s lovely headquarters in the old Glenfield Bowling Club.
Our extensive experience in organizing events for businesses will ensure everyone goes home with a sense of accomplishment, knowing they have made a positive impact on the environment.

“Thanks so much for helping us to organise the volunteer day on Wednesday. the team had a great time and we are keen to continue to be involved to see the projects and organisation evolve!” – Lauren, Xero
“The team really enjoyed being away from the monitors and learning about new things such as water clarity, water quality, weed identification and control. These benefits are indirect and not quantifiable, and I think the event has much more to offer than its face value.” - Auckland System Management
