Wetlands

NativeAwa’s high-density planting increases nitrate uptake and provides a support habitat for microorganisms that break down waste products in our wetlands.

Just as urban parks are considered the lungs of a city, a wetland can be considered the kidneys of a rural environment. Properly managed and functioning wetlands have a multitude of benefits to their immediate surroundings and play a critical role in wider eco systems. Restored wetlands assist in the cleansing of waterways, filtering of land run off and promote far wider benefits to bio mass and diversity of a location.

True wetlands are an important, forgotten and often badly treated part of land and environmental management. Properly managed investments in wetland restoration and management are a simple, cost effective land management tool that provides long term, lasting returns to property owners and the planet.

Benefits of our wetlands:

N
High-density planting increases nitrate uptake and provides a support habitat for microorganisms that break down waste products (nitrates, fine sediments, metals and pollutants) in our ponds.
N
Erosion and sediment control.
N
Help mitigate the impacts of extreme weather events.
N
Buffering water levels in times of flooding, helping divert, spread and disperse peak water levels, reducing erosion and land loss.
N
Act as water stores in times of drought, retaining soil moisture levels and water tables.
N
Provides a habitat for bird and fish life.
N
The large custom-made surface area creates a large surface area for the microbes to attach to.
N
Cost effective, and look good too!
