RECENT NEWS

STRATEGIC GOALS

Our People

We focus on developing the skills and leadership of our members, particularly through initiatives like the Young Plant Producer competition, the Fraser Award and Plant Careers. We are working with our members, industry partners, tertiary providers and the Government to reignite the training programmes and qualifications that have been so important to our sector.

Environmental Sustainability

Environmental sustainability is central to our mission. We have a Sustainable Water Code of Practice and have actively engaged in advocating for better water management policies. We have worked with EECA to support members to transition to renewable energy sources. We also have a Plastics Advisory Committee to help our industry increase its plastic pot recycling and use of sustainable alternatives.

Member Services

We provide valuable services to our members, including the Go Gardening magazine, which increases consumer demand for plants, and the Plant Trolleys hire scheme, which enhances the efficiency and safety of plant transportation. Our events, such as the NZPPI Conference, nursery field trips and workshops offer opportunities for upskilling, networking, knowledge sharing, and industry collaboration.

Relationships and Influence

NZPPI plays a crucial role in advocating for policies that benefit our members and the wider plant production sector. We have successfully influenced decisions regarding plant imports, native afforestation strategies, and the National Pest Plant Accord. Our ongoing engagement with government and industry bodies ensures that our members' interests are well-represented.
