Environment
Protecting our whenua (land)
The owners, operators and staff at Helena Bay Lodge are committed to not only minimising our impact on the environment but doing our utmost to regenerate and cause it to flourish, which we undertake through the following initiatives:
- We have an extensive trapping programme in place to eliminate introduced predators and protect native flora and fauna
- We use eco-friendly and sustainable products wherever possible
- We reduce our use of fossil fuels by operating a fleet of electric farm vehicles
- Over 200 hectares of forest on the property provide a substantial carbon sink
- Much of our needed produce and meat is provided on the property through our estate-to-plate philosophy, reducing the carbon footprint of food transportation.
