Tūngia te ururua kia tupu whakaritorito te tupu o te harakeke.
Set the overgrown bush alight and the new flax shoots will spring up.

Nau mai haere mai, all are welcome to attend an introduction and how to harvest, prepare and kohua for preservation of your harakeke.

These classes will allow you to graduate from beginners to intermediate classes.

The focus will be on putiputi (Flowers), Konae, Kono, (two-corner and four-corner containers).

Led by Linda Lee (Ngāti Kurī, Ngāi Tākoto, Te Rarawa, Te Aupōri, Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Huia), Frank Topia (Ngā Puhi, Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Haua) with and kaiāwhina (helpers).

We will start with tikanga and harvesting as well as storage. You will walk away with woven taonga at the end of this class.

Beginners moving into Intermediate level can purchase "Stay for the day ticket" if you think you are ready and class will finish at 4-4:30. Note: You should be harvesting for yourself.
