For Investors & Funders

Back a generational restoration initiative with measurable ecological and financial returns. Canterbury's landscape needs investment — and rewards it.

Why invest?

Carbon credit returns

Eligible plantings generate NZUs under the Emissions Trading Scheme. As native forests mature, their carbon sequestration — and your returns — grow year on year.

Biodiversity credits

Emerging biodiversity credit markets recognise the ecological value of native restoration. Ma Tatou's framework quantifies and monetises these outcomes.

Canterbury heritage

Your investment restores the indigenous ecosystems of one of New Zealand's most productive and historically significant regions.

Ways to engage

Project sponsor

Fund a specific planting project and track its ecological outcomes directly. Ideal for organisations seeking tangible, site-specific impact.

Programme partner

Invest across the Recloaking Waitaha portfolio for diversified exposure to carbon and biodiversity credits across multiple sites and catchments.

Strategic funder

Support the programme's infrastructure, data platform, and capacity-building. Shape the future of landscape-scale restoration in Canterbury.

Measurable impact

Every investment is tracked through the Recloaking Waitaha platform — from species planted and hectares restored to carbon sequestered and biodiversity outcomes recorded. Transparent, data-driven reporting you can share with your stakeholders.
