Come and discover more about Māori traditions and kai (food) on free shared lunch!
For centuries Māori have lived, worked, and loved the rugged yet fertile lands of their ancestors. Traditional Māori believed that the earth was the giver of all life. From the soil, came food and that same food was cooked beneath the earth.
In traditional life, New Zealand's Māori people were hunters, gatherers and crop farmers who harvested their food from the forest, stream, sea and garden. The Māori diet was based on birds and fish, supplemented by wild herbs and roots. In their tribal gardens, Māori also grew root crops including potato and kumara (sweet potato).
