Our mixed land use design includes native restoration, exotic/novel ecosystems with areas of intensive syntropic management. On broader acreage the high value timber will bring carbon into our soils at scale, while silvopasture techniques will allow for various animal inclusions. The built environment comprises accommodation and community spaces as well as celebration and devotional (but secular) infrastructure. \n\nWorking with local iwi (indigenous tribe) to restore the mana (spiritual power, prestige, respect) to this land, our efforts extend from the top of our highest point on the maunga (mountain) down to sea level on the Kaipara moana (ocean harbour). Ariki\u2019s in-house pest control programme is bringing back the manu (birds). Flat areas are maintained for the community to enjoy, and we love hosting groups of humans for celebration, commiseration, education and inspiration. \n\nOur land recently received official council consent to host the two art and wellbeing festivals run by our community, \u2018Resolution NYE\u2019 and \u2018NZ Spirit Festival\u2019 - both of which attract several thousand attendees enjoying a range of music, art, holistic health and educational offerings. \nWe have a large tipi dedicated to mens and womens circles, while the geodesic dome is set up to host our volunteer work exchange folk, as well as ecstatic dance, seasonal events and ceremonies. \n\nSignificant native restoration has been undertaken by the community. Protecting riparian districts (waterways) remains a priority, and we have many steep paddocks needing to be retired to the vibrant and alive rainforest the area once was. Exotic species are also welcome for their strategic strengths, especially when it comes to building soil, reducing erosion, privacy plantings and roadside noise mitigation. All regen action has been recorded thus far, and we look forward to getting a full GIS/topographical chart done for ultimate impact measurement. \n\nKa ora te whenua, ka ora te tangata\nIf the land is well, the people will thrive\nPa Ropata\n\nPlease consider support the Ariki effort, and we\u2019d love to host all who align with our Earth-centered values and mission. Our team is brimming with talent for regenerative action and a passion for carbon sequestration. In addition to the quantitative benefits of this ambitious project, we see our work as Earthkeepers as a spiritual journey of becoming and belonging. Restoring the mana of the mountain and the mauri (life force, vital essence) of the ngahere (forest) allows us to step into our roles in the broader story of life, and nourish the qualitative, mythological layers of the great turning of these turbulent times. \n\n\u201cYou never change things by fighting the existing reality.\nTo change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.\u201d\n\u2015 Buckminster Fuller\n", "hidden": false, "question": "Please describe your project's mission and values.", "questionId": 1}, {"type": "short-answer", "answer": "4127 Kaipara Coast HighwayTauhoa 0984", "hidden": false, "question": "What is the location of your land project?", "questionId": 2}, {"type": "paragraph", "answer": "Regenerating people and place through:\n\nRestoration of former-forest farmland ecologies - native, edible, syntropic support species, woodlots, biological energy (firewood), strategic exotic restoration\n\nRestoration of social ecologies - collaborative land-based living, tiny house village, non-hierarchical decision making (sociocracy), mens work, womens work, rites of passage.\n", "hidden": false, "question": "Summarize the regenerative activities you are engaged in.", "questionId": 3}, {"type": "paragraph", "answer": "Support for strategic planting planning \nPlant procurement \nMahi ra manaakitanga (hosting volunteer days)\nAcquisition of appropriate technology and infrastructure:\n\nOn site propagation shed / plant nursery \nFences for planted area exclusion  / inclusion of holistic grazing pasture\n4WD mower for clearing planting areas \nMeeting shed/space\nTools for regenerative action: spades, blades, personal protective equipment.\n", "hidden": false, "question": "What particular initiatives will these funds support?", "questionId": 4}, {"type": "paragraph", "answer": "Charting all changes made (reporting also required for council and other stakeholders)\nGIS/topographical chart for planning, tracking and analysis of regen action and impact\nGathering of the \u2018warm data\u2019 - songs, art, stories from the great turning to a life sustaining relationship between people and place. \n", "hidden": false, "question": "How will/do you measure or determine the impact of your efforts?", "questionId": 5}, {"type": "short-answer", "hidden": true, "question": "Your Signal phone number (for a group chat, if you have one)", "questionId": 6, "encryptedAnswer": {"ciphertext": "0GGCMA5E60lhMgzlba3USSzZMFITDtts/LFxt2nO3BI=", "encryptedSymmetricKey": "9eebc78550f4cd58bcf4864e2247bffeadeb517ea16afa4d434ced5b8fb4ed5f6e230fa70b72609529821f2a1b9c150ef77b7dff881e7c088c9b5f684600dbb1c5787466a689b3e2a5ce9fbddefce02356884fc37c4d5606d1e2be7cef5af2b263c3546b0227686dd35248472b51540bf701365810b842e23f35f4cd4519ab870000000000000020a8a68fa210267f12e1a33419840900dafdcdcd77536564d4c5bcb367a13e56607436514f0e4a75dd3335c760a51c73a2"}}, {"type": "short-answer", "hidden": true, "question": "Your Telegram phone number (for a group chat, if you have one)", "questionId": 7, "encryptedAnswer": {"ciphertext": "Rmdf1tzmfG/rngu7pfyWVVLsOd3HlP9lZyVmtc932zs=", "encryptedSymmetricKey": "1899a7a0fd98844383519d5ae10f1bac2f1cf8cd4985ed78590067672bbdf66a15c1c738e524d5268030fd6a4ace79120455de02bb44ed631bda36a0a18f9b5a73fc2b03eb4d0099a7e2c72c5c06d378cacfb44b98b4214e762891562b1b0d99cf0cc007cb7d90e4604afeb9516298f3d2706b2d2a8f978dd321f9d25593aa75000000000000002089f3ed577df7e2cd0a017d5e2035e740337aca4d47c223e722c2f492be727a00e7bfbd0911a9d6c694b9478d540f3aac"}}], "project": {"id": "0x91201ee51d0adef07f324ccef71d8aa3f326f2d74112cc7dd56e08ca2823875d", "title": "Regenerate Ariki", "logoImg": "bafkreibuuwxwuky3qyytvjymdolmzdayqgf6dvlxeeu54xnbm6drqulmqu", "metaPtr": {"pointer": "bafkreigr73vqetkrtqv5tuyg5rkst7y7hk4dixafq72zevikjii2feudxu", "protocol": "undefined"}, "website": "https://www.arikiestate.nz/", "bannerImg": "bafkreibxrjkyjydvoek3ocylaatqeoa52dewndd2mcgfyhn4ocxp4jan7a", "createdAt": 1713314274081, "credentials": {}, "description": "Our vision is to establish a self-reliant, eco-region that embodies sustainability, regenerative energy, local food and water security.
