Rākau means 'tree' in Māori. Our vision is to generate and protect the world's native forests.

Kia ora.

We envision a future where lush, native forests once again thrive across continents, revitalizing ecosystems and supporting Indigenous communities as stewards of their ancestral lands. By blending ancient ecological knowledge with modern innovation, we are not only combating climate change but also fostering sustainable livelihoods and protecting cultural connections to the land.

Through groundbreaking partnerships with Indigenous communities, we are creating a holistic approach to reforestation. Our efforts honor the unique customs and ecological needs of each community we work with, ensuring that our work is both environmentally and culturally meaningful.

At Rākau Carbon, every tree we plant represents more than just a step toward a greener future. It’s a commitment to preserving endangered species, safeguarding water sources, and building a more resilient world. Together, we’re cultivating a sustainable, interconnected future — rooted in tradition and branching into innovation.

Our why

We look forward to positively impacting our future. Together.
