Looking to build healthy soils, grow healthy kai and take care of the wellbeing of your whānau, whenua and future generations? Learn to apply hua parakore approaches in your own māra with our very special Hua Parakore Soil Health Wānanga in May. 🌱
The two-day wānanga is led by hua parakore food grower Dr Jessica Hutchings and will take place in Te Whanganui-a-Tara.
Join Jessica to learn how to:
- Reconnect and re-member soil as an ancestor - as Hineahuone.
- Explore how hua parakore supports soil health beyond productivity by focusing on balance, vitality and intergenerational care.
- Learn the six key hua parakore principles and how these inform nurturing soils without synthetic inputs.
- Understand how to observe environmental signs and work in alignment with natural and seasonal cycles.
- Reflect on your own relationships with soil and place.
- Understand how hua parakore can be applied within marae, community and whenua-based contexts to support seed, soil and food sovereignty.
