Event description

A Toru Trail Event: Discover how we can transform landscapes, how we can create places in nature where we feel we've come home. Nature starts to respond when we allow it to regenerate, it starts to support us when we nurture plants and trees that have healing properties.

.Hella and Joep retired the land from grazing 15 years ago, they have been self sufficient in vegetables for many years.

What to expect:

  • A short walk from the DOC carpark to the outdoor classroom area, the thermettes will be boiling for a shared morning tea at the fire circle.
  • We will be hearing about the QE11 covenant and a restoration agreement with new plantings on the last bare hillside.
  • A foraging walk through the regeneration learning about rongoa, gathering and sharing seeds of the many native fruiting trees and shrubs including the native missletoes, we'll then come to the exotic shelter belts, orchard/food forest and vegetable garden.
  • Hands on activity will be shelling beans and processing seeds.
  • Lunch will be served in the old scout hall
  • We finish with a sharing circle, highlighting the permaculture principals.
  • People may want to do the 1.5 hr loop walk, see map included.
