Our recent project at Mowing Worx
We recently had the incredible opportunity to contribute to the conservation efforts on Motutapu Island by mowing paddocks on slopes to support a native tree planting project by Ngāi Tai for a few consecutive days. It was a rewarding experience to combine our expertise in Steep Slope Mowing with a passion for environmental sustainability.
We're honoured to have had the opportunity to make a positive impact on Motutapu Island.
If you or someone you know requires paddock mowing services, feel free to reach out to us for a free quotation without any obligations at www.mowingworx.co.nz... or email us at info@mowingworx.co.nz

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
