Welcome
to the New Zealand Notable Trees Trust (NZNTT) website
The Notable Trees Trust
was established 2007/2008, and arose from a national scheme established
in 1977 to identify and register heritage trees.
The Notable Trees Trust
is a registered charitable trust. The new trust has several initial
and ongoing challenges:
-
Develop
a public database of New Zealand’s notable trees
To utilise existing records and newly submitted listings.
-
Establish
a NZ national tree registrar network
To assist the trust in locating Notable, Veteran and Champion
trees nationwide.
-
Populate
the database with verified data
To ensure all information is accurate and in a consistent
format.
-
Promoting
NZNTT nationwide to private and public tree owners
To ensure individuals, councils and agencies are aware/supportive.
Notable
Trees Database
A primary objective
of the trust is to establish and maintain a comprehensively updated
database of New Zealand’s notable trees.
