"Knowledge about traditional harvesting and processing of native plants dwindled as imported products replaces old ones. Today, though, there is new interest in the ways native plants can provide us with food, fibre, building materials and medicines. These stories of native plants of the South Island of Aotearoa New Zealand describe the characteristics of the plants and the ways that Måaori and European settlers grew and processed them, and they uncover some surprising uses of common native plants"--Back cover.

Autorenporträt
Rob Tipa (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Kahungunu) is a freelance journalist with more than forty years' experience as a reporter and editor with metropolitan, community and farming publications. To reconnect with his Ngāi Tahu heritage, he researched a series of articles on traditional uses of New Zealand native plants that were on the Ngāi Tahu taonga plants list. This became a series of nearly fifty columns published in Te Karaka magazine over a period of ten years.
