At Rangitoto Station, a restored wetland stretches as far as the eye can see. For farmer James Hunter, it’s more than a project. It’s a life’s work and a legacy. By restoring these wetlands and creating interlinked waterways, the ecosystem becomes healthier and much more resilient. All that clean filtered water supports thriving pastures, which directly benefits the lamb raised on Rangitoto. This careful stewardship helps protect the land, the animals, and the future of the farm for generations
