Website under development — expected operational launch September 2025

At Vector Group Charitable Trust, our commitment to kai resilience and a food-secure Te Puke has never been stronger. Under Grow Te Puke, we are building a local food system that is abundant, diverse, and accessible. Today we are announcing a new directory and booking platform for Food Forest Tours.

This platform is your gateway to sustainable living and hands-on learning — a hub for community connection, education, and exploration. It centralises kai resilience in one place: find and book food forest tours, discover events, and register for workshops.

Curious about syntropic agroforestry or growing a perennial garden? You can find workshops matched to your interests and connect with experts and passionate growers in our region — composting, harvesting seminars, and more in one easy-to-use location.

This reflects our core mission: “Your journey to a sustainable plate starts here. We’re dedicated to helping you discover local food forests, connecting you with nature, and fostering resilient communities. Join us in cultivating a healthier, greener future, one harvest at a time.”

We hope this tool empowers your next step toward a more sustainable lifestyle. Explore the site, book a tour, sign up for a workshop, and take part in Te Puke’s growing kai resilience movement.
