our Whānau
The gardens at Te Aitarakihi are more than just a beautiful outdoor space—they are a reflection of our commitment to honoring the land, preserving our heritage, and fostering connections with nature. These thoughtfully cultivated grounds serve as a peaceful retreat and a vital cultural asset for our community.
Community involvement
Our gardens are maintained with the help of dedicated volunteers who embody the spirit of manaakitanga (hospitality) and kotahitanga (unity). Their efforts ensure that the gardens remain a source of pride and a resource for future generations.
