Who is ReKete?
Our name honours our whakapapa from South America spanning the Pacific Ocean to our roots in Aotearoa NZ. It comes from Chilean slang 'requete' meaning 'extremely', as in 'requete bueno' a very good thing. The Re is for 'regenerative', and Kete means 'basket'. Hence ReKete: A basket of tools for regenerative land management.
We are practitioners, not just consultants, walking the land alongside you to de-risk your regenerative journey. Since 2006, we’ve supported thousands of people across 10 countries and hundreds of projects, ensuring every land-use transition is practical, manageable, and fits your way of life.

The ReKete Toolkit
We start where you are with the resources you have and the people in your team to define the potential of the place, the aspirations of people, to define a direction of travel, and attract the resources and skills to move you forward.
1. Maximise Solar Catch
Boost carbon drawdown by keeping your soil covered in green. We design diverse planting systems that maximize year-round photosynthesis to pump liquid carbon into the earth.
2. Protect the Sponge
Reduce carbon loss from tillage. Our "Safety-First" management preserves soil structure, keeping moisture in the ground and preventing your natural capital from oxidising.
3. Build Biological Wealth
Utilise soil fungi to convert organic matter into stable humus. We help you engineer a "Carbon Sponge" that stores water and builds permanent value for your land.
Replant your waterways
We restore natural hydrological cycles to rehydrate your landscape, providing clean water resources while helping to cool the local climate.
Shade & Shelter Designs
Utilising the natural regeneration of shelterwoods to enhance nutrient cycling and rain retention, boosting the overall productivity of your rangelands.
Restore your wetlands
A critical step to rebuild the soil carbon sponge, significantly increasing your land's capacity to soak up water and buffer against droughts or floods.
Reforest Erodible Slopes
We implement forest management that maximises photosynthesis and carbon drawdown while preventing the oxidisation of your soil.
Grow Nutrient Dense Food
Focussing on microbial soil formation to restore biological processes, ensuring your kai and your produce is packed with essential nutrients.
Regenerate Grazing Land
We design effective structural fencing systems or halter grazing patterns to create diverse grazing systems that utilise biology to convert roots into soil carbon.
