Ko Wai mātou?
Ahi Kaa Collective products are natural and healing. The Rongoā used in our products are picked using traditional techniques through karakia and guidance and each product is made through MAURI(life force) and WAIRUA(energy).
The name Ahi Kaa means to keep the fires burning, to keep the mana and connection alive. So no matter where I am, I am” keeping the fires burning” for me and my whanau.
Our logo
The manu symbolises me as I navigate my way and guide others, the top point of the triangle is IO, the left point my connection to Te Whenua moemoea and the Right point Aotearoa. The logo symbolises me and my connection to IO, the Whenua and the spiritual realm.
AHI KAA
Burning fires of occupation, title to land through occupation by the group over a long period of time. Through use of whakapapa they can trace back to primary ancestors who lived on the land. They held influence over the land through their military strength and defended successfully against challenges, thereby "KEEPING THE FIRES BURNING"

Ko Kamira Te Rangi tōku ingoa
I am passionate in helping others find their path through guidance from IO, Rongoā Atua me ngā Kaitiaki o te Ao Māori me te Ao Marama(guardians of the natural world).
I wanted to create products that connect Aotearoa and Te Whenua Moemoea and that is not only for healing on the outside but also for healing on the inside, focusing on the balance of us here in the natural world and, in the spiritual world.
Tā mātou whāinga
Is for Ahi Kaa Collective to become a household name, for people to have that connection through my products, my clothing, my label.
