About Our Farm
This unique landscape is a vibrant mosaic of lakes, wetlands, peat flats, rolling pasture, steep hills, and a mix of native and exotic trees. Like a living, breathing organism, the farm continues to grow and transform.
Over the past 15 years, that transformation has accelerated—towards a more connected, regenerative way of farming that nurtures both land and community.
We’d love to invite you further into our journey.
Why?
At Mangarara – The Family Farm, we are deeply committed to regenerating both land and community. Partnering with EcoForce Global to plant trees plays a vital role in this mission. It’s more than just planting trees—it’s about restoring balance, building resilience, and creating a thriving future for people and planet.
Tree planting supports our goals in powerful ways:
Regenerative Agriculture & Resilient Food Systems:
Trees are integral to producing healthy, nutrient-rich food. Their roots improve soil structure, their presence supports biodiversity, and their shade helps protect animals and pasture. This all contributes to a profitable, regenerative farming model.
*Restoring Ecosystems & Balancing Nature with Production:
By planting native and food-producing trees, especially in partnership with EcoForce Global, we actively sequester carbon, enrich soil health, and enhance the natural ecosystems around us. This work is crucial for climate resilience and for restoring the vital connection between agriculture and nature.
*Education, Connection & Inspiration:
Through our Eco Lodge and educational experiences, visitors witness first-hand the transformational power of trees—not just for the environment, but for wellbeing, community, and our collective future. Partnering with EcoForce strengthens this offering, inspiring others to become part of the solution.
*Building a Cooperative Community Model:
Tree planting symbolizes our wider mission: working together with others—including organisations like EcoForce Global—to create a model of collaboration and stewardship. It’s about showing what’s possible when we nurture our shared environment and each other.
Together with EcoForce Global, every tree planted at Mangarara becomes a living expression of hope, regeneration, and possibility. It’s a step toward healing the land and reconnecting with the deeper rhythms of nature.
