Hark! Restoring a forest with Miranda Wells of the 800 Trust
from Blue Shed Diary · host PGG Wrightson
It all started with 888-acres of retired farmland in East Taranaki when Miranda Wells, her partner Daryl Egarr, and brother Bjorn Doherty purchased this land in 2013 as a weekend hunting spot.But the discovery of wild kiwi changed the trajectory of their lives and this land. Together, they formed the 800-Trust which has an ambitious mission to restore a dying forest and create a biodiversity corridor for some of our rarest indigenous species. The introduction of AI-powered technology, Hark, is revolutionising how they are accomplishing this mission, and could make a huge difference to conservation efforts in the future. Joining the conversation is Miranda Wells of the 800 Trust. Read more about the 800 Trust in our latest edition of Rural Diary.Learn more about Hark and the 800 Trust, visit here.
