SUMMARY:Caring for Pā Harakeke
DESCRIPTION:A shared\, hands-on kaupapa grounded in tikanga and care. \nJoin Charmaine Bailie and the Kaipātiki Project team for a four-session series focused on caring for pā harakeke. Come to one or come to all. \nThese sessions are about spending time with harakeke\, learning its rhythms\, understanding its role as taonga and caring for it in ways that align with tikanga Māori and the needs of the whenua. \n\nLearn about harakeke and its connection to people\, place and ecosystems.\nFollow tikanga for caring for and harvesting harakeke.\nCarry out practical mahi to support the health of the pā.\nTransplant harakeke in the final two sessions to strengthen and extend the pā.\n\nPlease note:  These are not weaving workshops. We are focusing on the tikanga around care first. As part of the process\, you are welcome to take rau to weave.  \nThese sessions are open to anyone who wants to learn through doing\, whether you are new to harakeke\, involved in raranga or wanting to contribute to caring for te taiao. No prior experience is needed. \nThanks to Kaipātiki Local Board for supporting this initiative.
