If you’re keen to share your knowledge about a relationship to Papatuānuku, Hineahuone, or soil - maybe consider sending an abstract for consideration, to present your whakaaro at the upcoming Soils Rotorua 2024 Conference.

These are some of the questions that were asked at the Native Afforestation workshop in Rotorua and why Ngā Pou a Tāne advocates for Māori leadership in the national Native Afforestation programme.
