Due to the number of people having to isolate we have made the decision to postpone this event to April 24th.
A moment to celebrate what our special city has to offer, this event aims to highlight some of the incredible mahi of cherished organisations in our central city. Seeds to Feeds and BGI are stoked to host this community kai!
You are invited to interact with our city by taking a guided walking tour that will lead past businesses that we feel are doing amazing mahi we want to highlight. After which you'll be able to join us for a delicious and nourishing meal shared at BGI.
We will have printed booklets that further share their stories, alongside a special story from Tanya Ruka of Fog and Moon studio about Te Aro and the land in which was are lucky enough to be present.
This is a unique part of Wellington and we look forward to sharing it with you!
The meal we'll be preparing for you is: Plant-Based feast using produce grown in Te MARAmatanga Community Garden as well as rescue food from our partnership with Kaibosh who are doing amazing work around resilience and sustainability in the food sector.
Te MARAmatanga is a community garden established on Macdonald Crescent in November 2020 in collaboration with WCC, NZTA, and BGI. This was an opportunity for the local community to have a say on how we can utilise our underused green spaces and has been a place to build hope for greener futures, educate young people and the community about growing local food and the food cycle as well as a place to be social and form cross-generational friendships.
We would love you all to be part of Te Aro’s Seeds to Feeds event and witness how nature is all around us and part of us even in dense Urban Environments. Taste the wonders of wild foods growing on our walkways, see how local communities build green spaces from the concrete foundations, share in the caring nature of those who rescue what would be wasted in our unsustainable global economic model, and meet the people who are looking to make the city (and in a small part the world) a more sustainable and beautiful place to live in!
We can't wait to share beautiful kai with you in our beautiful city
