Maara Kai & Rongoa Community Gardens update.

Our first apple cumcumber has appeared.
Looking forward to seeing alot more pop up soon.

On the 19 November 2025 we will be planting our kumara tipu at 8.30am
53 Oregon Drive Murupara this will take about half to an hour to complete the planting.

We will open up with a karakia and a mihi before we start.

Last year we got a variety of big and small kumara. The kumara plants were planted in maara kai 📦 out in the open.
This year we are still going to plant the kumara tipu the same way but we are also growing them in the green house tunnel to see if the heat makes a big difference to the growth and numbers.

There will be some kumara tipu to take home also.

Anyone is most welcome to come down and help.

Everyone who enters the premises must sign in H&S requirements.

Please don't take any veges from the gardens. See Oni or Robert as some areas may be sprayed.

Mauriora.
