NZW Sustainability Report 2025
Thirty years after the launch of Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand, the wine industry's dedication to protecting soils, waterways and climate is stronger than ever.

She has extensive experience advising both private and public sector clients on all aspects of the resource management system including district and regional plan changes and consenting processes.
