Restoring Te Awarua a Porirua
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
The wetlands and surrounding forests of Te Awarua o Porirua, or Porirua Harbour, were once rich food baskets for NgÄti Toa Rangatira. But development throughout the catchment - large-scale deforestation, road and rail building and urban growth - have brought sediment and pollution into the harbour. Now a new coordinated effort at restoration aims to return the area to it's former plenty.
