What you said

Our sports fields and gardens are thriving at the hands of experienced and professional services. We have been experiencing vastly improved performance in these areas since handing these spaces over to the Green by Nature team independently execute the maintenance schedule. We have a designated site manager who collaborates and communicates effectively to ensure our goals are achieved.

As Liveable Spaces Manager for Council I have worked with Green by Nature for the last four years. I have found the staff to be helpful, responsive, and often will go the extra mile to help achieve an important outcome for the community. We have areas for improvement, but we look to how we can achieve these together, most effectively. The people at Green by Nature at every level of the company, are a pleasure to work with.

The mahi that Green By Nature does makes people feel good, and as a contractor they have delivered strongly for us. We consistently receive positive comments from people about the beautification work in our town and greenspaces, keeping our sportsgrounds in great condition, and ensuring our public conveniences are clean and safe to use. These are tangible things that the public see, and their track record of delivering for us and the community gave us confidence that signing this renewal was the right thing to do

Council’s General manager – Community

Our strong working relationship with the Whangarei Green by Nature team is highly cherished. Their unmatched dedication and passion for maintaining our field of play, grounds, and venue strengthen our partnership, enabling us to successfully secure, host, and deliver significant events. Our proudest moment was during the Rugby World Cup 2021 when the Match Commissioner expressed commendation for the ‘velvety field of play’ at our venue.
