Art of Foraging Walk - Summer: Auckland, December 2020

You and your family are invited to join the premiere public walks of sensory storytelling held on the 72 seclusive acres of private land.

 

During each walk, your senses will be awakened by seeing, smelling, touching and tasting seasonal native plants. 

 

"The Art of Foraging" unexpectedly provided me with a very deep connection with nature. I came away both surprised and grateful for this experience. Through Mamakan's love for plants and her sharing of her knowledge, not just through words but by seeing, smelling, and tasting what they offered, I was quite amazed. I realized through this experience some of nature's secrets and how she can provide for us if treated respectfully. After being introduced and intimately connected to plants along our walk through the schools beautiful grounds, we were asked to walk quietly through the bush on our way back. It was in these moments that this peace came over me and a feeling of gratitude filled me for the experience. A new connection and respect for nature was awakened and it would never be the same again. - Thomas Kuhner, Goldsmith and Jewelry Designer
