Ngutukākā, or kākābeak, is a popular garden plant in Aotearoa. But in the wild, it is now rarer than kākāpō, with only about 100 individual plants surviving on steep, inaccessible cliffs. The East Coast is one of its remaining strongholds and the Tairāwhiti Ngutukākā Trust is on a mission to bring the taonga back. Veronika Meduna joins the inaugural Tairāwhiti Ngutukākā Festival to find out more about the community’s efforts to turn State Highway 35 into a Crimson Highway by rewilding this iconic native.

Graeme Atkins, Tairāwhiti Ngutukākā Trust
Mere Tamanui, Tairāwhiti Ngutukākā Trust
Hōhepa Waenga, East Coast Myrtle Rust Response Team
Natalie Robertson, artist and Associate Professor at Auckland University of Technology
