Phone 0204 192-9415 to pre-order your firewood with your name, email address, and # of bags required on the day (deadline for placing orders is Friday 5 pm of the pick-up week, so we have time to bag the wood for the Sunday pick up). We will send you a confirmation text to confirm your order.

Placing an order is really important - we sold out in 11 minutes at the last pick-up.

This firewood is priced at around half the cost of similar-sized firewood bags.

NB: We recommend de-bagging the wood after pick up, and letting the wood air out in a covered area at home.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
