Where does our kai go?
Sales
We sell some of our produce through the awesome local kai co-op Co-shop at the Hauora Kai Central Park pick up location. Anyone can use this online platform to make purchases between 2pm Saturday and 8pm Monday weekly. Collection is available on Thursdays.
You can also join our Farm Whānau to get in on the pick your own veggie benefits.
Donations
We are pleased to donate at least half of the kai we grow to our community, those who may not otherwise have access to organically grown, nutrient dense kai. We currently have two community partners that we donate to weekly.
Te Whare Hapori o ngā Puna Waiora | Newtown Community Centre who use our veggies in their Quick Kai meals and for their Free Soup Fridays. It’s a great feeling to help feed Newtowners with kai grown in Newtown.
Compassion Soup Kitchen Te Kīhini Hupa o Pūaroha on Tory Street, who do incredible mahi providing thousands of free meals each month.
It’s a privilege to be able to support both of these amazing organisations in a small way! We also donate some kai to our volunteers in acknowledgement of the time and energy they put into supporting us.
