Fleecegrow’s Post

Last week we had an amazing conversation with Roimata Minhinnick of Ngāti Te Ata, our local iwi. This is just one of several conversations we've had over the years as we've developed our whanaungatanga, first over Facebook and then by phone. We share an interest in horticulture, climate change and sustainability. We exchange ideas, articles of interest, news about conferences and trips and what we've learned. It's been a wonderful journey, and very different to so many western relationships, which are often transactional. We don't just get in touch when we need something. This type of relationship which is giving and not expecting suits so much better for the future we want to create. We're thankful for Roimata's support, but also for our growing friendship as we work on how what we can do could improve our local waterways. Aroha mai, aroha atu. Manaaki whenua, manaaki tangata, haere whakamua.
