Foraging for flavour!

Finders Eaters is all about flavours.

There are so many unique  flavours growing on plants all around us that we all know and see everyday.

Tasting and smelling plants is a great way to connect  to them, help understand their character.

Ice cream is the perfect carrier of  flavours.

Hi I'm Mike,

Having an interest in the natural world has  enriched my life so much.

I would like to help spark that interest in others.

What's your school's flavour?

As a STEM field based facilitator

I can  help teachers and students find out

what botanical flavour

best represents their school. 

Is it a plant that's endemic to the area?

Is it a plant growing in abundance

on school grounds?

Is it a plant used historically by iwi or was it planted  by early settlers?

Make contact with me to assist your school use PLD hours outside in nature

on a mission to reveal your unique  flavour!

An Arborist / forager living on the Kapiti coast of New Zealand hunting unusual plants and mushrooms for a variety of different purposes.

Through my tree work I have gained access to a wide variety of private properties which I use to develop an ever growing database of plant products.

I am interested in promoting native plant products and educating businesses and the general public on the endless possibilities of New Zealand's unique Flora.
