Kumara are a staple vegetable for the New Zealander diet, so why not learn how to grow your own!?

Come an join us at Te Puea Orchards in Rotorua for our kumera planting demonstration. They will be showcasing the best way to plant kumera seedlings and offer some tips to help you grow your own delicious kumera.

After the demonstration, we will pause for tea, coffee, and some light snacks. Followed by a visit to Highstreet where we will view Peter's garden and see what 15 kumara seedlings look like after a few weeks of growth.
