Hua parakore
He aha te Hua Para Kore? Ma tenei ahutanga pea ka kitea te horomata, me te matūwaro o roto I ngā kai Maori?
Ko ngā tikanga/kawa ngā kaupapa o te mahinga kai. Me whakapumau Ngā mahi whakatu anga ahuwhenua kia taea ai e te whanau, hapu, me ngā kaimahi māra te mohio me te hoko kai Maori hauora. Kia taea ai hoki te whanake I te tūranga ahuwhenua I roto I tētahi takiwa ronaki, hauora hoki.
What is Hua Parakore? That is what constitutes pure or organic Maori kai?
“Hua Parakore is an integrity based process about authenticating Maori seed, Māori grown, Māori verified, Māori marketed and Māori exported. Hua Parakore is the Maori point of difference.” Percy Tipene, Chairman, Te Waka Kai Ora

Māra kai
He Whakatauaki;
Ko te Kai too Ronga; Ko te Ronga to Kai; Let your food be your medicine, and medicine be your food.
Te Waka Kai Ora encourage and support Whanau to grow their own healthy kai and medicines. Growing kai and medicines is a way of practising Kaitiakitanga on your whenua as well as a way of taking care of whänau by eating Healthy Kai free of pesticides, toxins and genetic modification – which al contributes to Whanau Ora. Maara Kai also supports whänau to become more resilient and self reliant which could lead to economic benefits for your whänau.
