Ka ora te Whenua, Ka ora te tangata.
When the land is well, we are well.

Join us as we celebrate the launch of the 2026 Revised Edition of Rongoā Māori: A Practical Guide to Traditional Māori Medicine by the respected Robert McGowan (Pā Ropata).
For over 50 years, Pā has been guided by the words of Whanganui rangatira Rangi Metekingi:
"We don't own knowledge, we hold it, we share it, keep it safe and most of all, ensure that it continues to live for those who follow us."

This revised edition is a reflection of that enduring wisdom - a taonga created to preserve and share the knowledge entrusted to Pā, ensuring it continues to inspire and guide future generations.
Join us for this special celebration of rongoā Māori, mātauranga Māori, and Pā Ropata's extraordinary legacy.
