The Koru

Koru is a Māori word meaning “loop” or “coil,” and it refers to the unfurling fern frond, which is a significant symbol in Māori culture. It represents:

• New Beginnings & Growth – The unfurling shape symbolizes development, renewal, and the cycle of life.
• Strength & Resilience – The fern is a strong plant that thrives in Aotearoa’s forests, reflecting endurance and adaptability.
• Harmony & Unity – The circular shape of the koru represents balance, connection, and the idea of returning to one’s roots while moving forward.

Our journey

New beginnings in our lives brought us together, and while we’re both from the other side of the world, we’re looking to grow and thrive with strength and resilience here in New Zealand.

Join us on our everyday adventures with our little lifestyle block in the Nelson/Tasman region on top of the South Island.

We’re a curious bunch, aiming to learn life skills that once were essential for survival, but are nowadays considered lifestyle and fun. Providing home-grown fruits and vegetables for our growing family is our daily joy.
