Single $5.50 People and the Land stamp.
Soils are central to the lives of all New Zealanders, even though we barely give them a second thought in our day-to-day lives. We build our houses and our roads on soil. We use them to grow our food, our natural fibres and timber. They filter our water, nourish our forests and our natural habitats.
This stamp issue highlights the importance of soil health for people and planet. Click here to find out more.
