Tool Package for Environmental groups

Built by someone who runs a trapping group. Because we needed it ourselves.

I'm Paul. I run Turboweb, and I also founded and run Aroha Kaikorai Valley, a volunteer predator control group here in Dunedin. Our website pulls trap data straight from TrapNZ and shows it live, right alongside our volunteer hours and how we actually run the group day to day.

That's not a demo we built to sell you something. It's the real site, running right now.

THE PROBLEM

If you run a trapping or environmental group, you'll know this pattern.

Your trap data lives in TrapNZ. That part works, everyone uses it, it's the national standard.

But your volunteer hours live in a spreadsheet somewhere, or in someone's head. Your operations knowledge, the how-to-run-this-group stuff, lives with whoever's been doing it longest, and walks out the door if they step back. And your website, if you have one, has no idea any of this is happening. It's disconnected from the actual work.

So the group everyone can see publicly, the traps, the catches, the volunteer effort, doesn't connect to the group that's actually being run behind the scenes.

THE SOLUTION

Foundation Template is the same stack Turboweb already runs for four community organisations, now built out for groups like yours around one core piece: your TrapNZ data, live on your public website.

It's three things working together:

• Your website (Turboweb CMS) — pulls trap counts, catch numbers, and volunteer stats straight from the TrapNZ API and publishes them publicly, updated automatically, no one manually copying numbers across.
• Volda — tracks volunteer hours and handles rostering, so the effort your people put in is actually recorded somewhere, not just known anecdotally.
• Adepty — your operations manual, in one place. How to run the group, not stuck in one person's head or a folder no one opens.

The point isn't three separate tools. It's that your trap data, your volunteer effort, and your operational knowledge all sit under the same roof, and your public website actually reflects what's really happening in the group.

PROOF: SEE IT RUNNING

I don't have a case study to show you. I have a live group.

Aroha Kaikorai Valley runs on this exact stack, right now, in Dunedin. As of this conversation:

• 4,115 volunteer hours logged
• 555 active traps
• 892 rats removed
• 14 mustelids removed
• 854 possums removed
• 253 hedgehogs removed
• 850 other pests removed

All of it pulled live from TrapNZ, published on our public site, sitting next to the volunteer and ops side of things.

Don't take my word for it. Go look at the actual site.

Want to see if this fits your group?

I run this personally, no sales team, no handoff to someone who's never trapped a rat in their life. If you want to talk through whether Foundation Template makes sense for your group, book a time and we'll go through it directly.
