Mike Gibbs, Ben Allen and Martin Freeman, who (together with Brad Myer) make up the Board of Directors, established Te Ngahere twelve years ago.

All three are university graduates with practical backgrounds in ecology, construction, and earth science.

They recognised a niche for a professional organisation offering specialist skills in native forest management. Since then, Te Ngahere has grown to a size where, for the last four years, it has engaged between 40 and 50 full time staff.

The initial passion for the environment that the Directors brought in the formation of the company is still present amongst staff.
