Situated in the Whareponga Valley, Maraeake is the name of the Ngarimu homestead where Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa Ngarimu VC was born. More than 100 years old and steeped in history, this house has no power, no reception, and occasionally no hot water. While this might be challenging for your average New Zealander, this whānau have made this house their home for generations, and living off the grid, hunting and harvesting their own kai is second nature.

Stories of homesteads through the eyes of the ahi kā that are maintaining and strengthening Māori ties to their tūrangawaewae.
