  4. Wai-a-te-Ao – F&B Bullock Track Restoration Project

Wai-a-te-Ao – F&B Bullock Track Restoration Project

About us

Wai-a-te-Ao – F&B Bullock Track Restoration Project logo

A great team of volunteers is working hard to complete this project by the start of 2024 and we’d love to have your help.

The Bullock Track Bush consists of about three hectares of scrub at the north-eastern end of Western Springs Park, next to the Old Bullock Track. This mostly sloping site includes a swamp at the bottom of the hill. Vegetation is a mixture of native and exotic species.

Our vision is to create a beautiful and locally unique environment of diverse native flora and fauna, which is representative of the Auckland region as a whole. This will be a place where native species can thrive, and people can go to relax and enjoy them in their neighbourhood. To achieve our vision we will need to substantially enhance the diversity and number of natives, eliminate weeds, remove rubbish, and control predators.
