Manaaki is a range of delicious preserves and condiments inspired by the aunties of old at Omaka Marae, using traditional maori ingredients with a modern spin, smack bang in the heart of picturesque Marlborough wine country. We wanted to create modern kai that complements our beautiful bounty and find Manaaki is a no-brainer with kai moana (crays and Marlborough salmon), cured meats and artisan c
heeses. As well as being a great match on antipasto platters, they also work well at other meal occasions. Think kamokamo pickle and cheese or beef sandwich. Think kawakawa jelly with pulled pork sliders. Think Piripiri Plum Chutney drizzled over chocolate brownie or cheesecake. With every purchase you are supporting social enterprise and the desire for Omaka Marae to remain self sustaining and therefore self determining. You are helping us preserve the skills of preserving (no pun intended). We want to promote healthy lifestyles by sharing healthy natural kai, and create an opportunity for whānau to acquire the skills needed to produce, market and sell products.
