Almanac

​​"We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us.
When we see land as a community to which we belong,
​we may begin to use it with love and respect
"

Aldo Leopold​

​"A Sand County Almanac" is a classic book written by American environmentalist Aldo Leopold, one of the founders of modern conservation. It records the story of his family's weekend retreat in rural Wisconsin after they purchased an abandoned farm in Sauk County during the 1930's dust bowl years.

​​An Uawa County Almanac is our project blog inspired by the philosophy of Aldo Leopold's classic. While Tāne's Rest is today part of the Gisborne District, historically it was part of Uawa County that was centred on Tolaga Bay and the Uawa River.

Our posts will record our progress as we give effect to our ethic of ecological land management, restoration ecology and sustainability. We welcome comments on our posts, or you can message us through our Contact page. We hope you enjoy reading our posts as much as we enjoy writing them.
