Meet the Team

Dee

In her spare time, Dee helps Paul to prune, plant, mow and generally look after the piece of paradise that is Manaaki Mai.

Paul

Paul makes sure the property here at Manaaki Mai looks spic and span. His passion is for the bush and nature, so he spends most of his time out planting, watering, pruning and caring for this 50 acres of paradise

 

Olive

Olive is resident border terrier at Manaaki Mai and will greet you whenever she is around

Her favourite jobs are supervising the planting of trees, finding possums and lying in the sun.

Georgie

Georgie is the latest addition to the Manaaki Mai team. She’s an irish terrior and loves meeting humans, although sometimes she can be a bit over enthusiastic.

Georgie does her best to catch possums, but isn’t quite as good as her older sister…
