Growing Strong Tamariki. Growing a Stronger Aotearoa.

Our Commitment to Te Taiao

With every Maaki Bar purchased, we contribute to Trees for Survival’s mission. Helping more schools grow their nurseries, plant more natives and connect more tamariki with nature.

Because strong kids grow in strong environments.
And when tamariki care for nature, nature cares for them.

A partnership with Trees for Survival means that every Maaki Bar supports

  • hands-on environmental education for tamariki,
  • real-world conservation work,
  • restoration of waterways, wetlands, and vulnerable landscapes, and
  • planting native species where they thrive long-term.

Why Trees for Survival?

Here’s why we love them:
🌿 Kids get to grow their own native seedlings
🌿 Schools learn how to care for plants in real-life nurseries
🌿 Classes go out and plant them in places that really need help
🌿 Waterways, wetlands, and wobbly hillsides get stronger
🌿 Tamariki learn that they can help the planet right now

Their goal is bold and inspiring:
to help kiwi school students plant one million native trees, shrubs, and grasses by 2030.
