Good Sorts Miranda Wells 2025

Miranda Wells – tree rescuer, native tree planter and with a plan to create a wildlife corridor across Taranaki

Miranda Wells, her husband Daryl Egarr​, an IT specialist, and her brother Bjorn​ Doherty, a computer scientist, bought a back country farm at Tututawa about 10 years ago, intending to use it as a weekend hunting getaway.

When they discovered wild kiwi living there, their hobby morphed into a full-time conservation mission.

In recent years, Miranda has coordinated the planting of 100 000 native plants on the retired farmland.
