| Quote |
Not a quote as I don’t have one but: I have found gardening to be one of the best teachers. It can and has taught me patience, perseverance, responsibility and hope. |
| Education |
Level 4 Advanced in horticulture via apprenticeship at Nga Rakau Nurseries. |
| Long-term Goal |
I have seen a need for education in teaching people where their food comes from and how they can use organic and eco-friendly ways for them to produce their own food. I hope to be a voice in this horticultural industry where I can link people to local produces and services that are also using sustainable practices. And hopefully this would help them to achieve at least a percentage of self-sufficiency. |
| How did you learn about the industry? |
I learnt about this industry through my time at Nga Rakau, before working there I had a passion for plants but working at the nursery opened the door for me. |
