Find plants and nurseries for food forests, gardens, and growing projects — connected to Troppo and kai resilience across the Bay of Plenty.
Sourcing the right plants — especially tropical and subtropical species — is one of the biggest barriers for growers. Nursery Map is Vector Group’s nationwide directory tool. It sits alongside our Troppo food forest, nursery stock, and KaiResilience.food listings so people can find plants, places, and community food support in one ecosystem.
Part of Vector Group Charitable Trust’s kai resilience and information sharing programmes.
Search and map nurseries across Aotearoa New Zealand — find suppliers for food forests, home gardens, subtropical species, and specialist stock that mainstream garden centres often do not carry.
Buy food-forest starters, tropical and subtropical edibles, and plants propagated at our Te Puke demonstration site — the same ecosystem that powers Nursery Map and community giveaways.
Regional food resilience listings — community meals, pantries, growing projects, and kai support pathways in the Western Bay and beyond. Growing and eating connect here.
The Bay of Plenty can grow an extraordinary range of food plants. Nursery Map removes friction between “I want to start a food forest” and “I know where to buy the stock.” It is the plant-sourcing layer for Troppo, Grow Te Puke, Crop Swap Te Puke, and Food Forest Tours.
Vector Group has gifted 50,000+ food-forest and vegetable plants to community growers since 2011 (around 5,000 a year) (documented total — see our kai resilience record) — Nursery Map and Troppo shop help the wider region find sources, not only our giveaways.
