Food is where you find it...

FindersEaters (10).jpg

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.

My interest in foraging has moved towards finding new and unknowen New Zealand native botanicals.

Ice cream has proven to be a great way to showcase flavours.

I run regular foraging tours around the wellington region with botanical ice cream tasting to help you understand the potential of NZ herbs and spices.

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?

 

 Use PLD funded hours outside in nature

 to reveal your  schools unique  flavour.

Private events and gift vouchers available.
