A weed identification guide prepared by the Christchurch City Council.

* Weedbusters
Weedbusters is a weeds awareness and education programme that aims to protect New Zealand's environment from the increasing weed problem.
* Weeds in New Zealand
This website is to encourage teachers to use weeds as a learning context in their teaching, to encourage students to learn how weeds impact on New Zealand's unique environment and to apply their newly gained knowledge and skills to providing solutions to weed invasion in their own backyard or local reserve.
* Weeds Newsletters
Landcare Research produces two newsletters about weeds: Wise up to Weeds! (published twice yearly) and What's New in Biological Control of Weeds? (published 4 times a year). The newsletters are published to keep clients, stakeholders, and research colleagues informed about progress towards developing sustainable biological control solutions for weed problems, and other research regarding the impacts of invasive weeds and the best way to deal with them.
