Episode Synopsis


It's time to return to the A-Z of Aotearoa. We've been making our way through the alphabet to look back at the iconic people and cultural touchstones that form New Zealand. We've arrived at 'K' today, so we're looking at the rich history of Kauri - the trees, the timber, the gum. Jesse speaks to Arty Bergman from Northland Kauri Timber about what it's like to work with Kauri in 2025, and Pete Panhuis, one of the country's foremost experts on Kauri.
