Revitalising Rural Properties & Country Estates
Extensive clearing in the past has left many properties exposed and vulnerable to environmental extremes. For over 4 decades owe have been providing products and expertise to rural property owners and managers to help reverse the effects of land degradation, increase productivity and provide for future sustainability.
We provide professional expertise on how to increase productivity, improve capital value and enhance the lifestyle benefits that living on a rural property provides. Our advice includes how to enact revegetation projects, create windbreaks/wildlife corridors, control erosion, create wetlands and how to manage and enhance riparian zones and any remnant natural vegetation on the site.
As part of our service we have a team of horticulturists to enact projects and maintain them if you require. At Wariapendi we not only plant for you, we will ensure that the plants will grow.
