Happy Mother's Day to all those who give maternal energy to this world. The kōwhai tree that we planted on our daughter's placenta is flowering. We nourish the earth and the earth nourishes us! 🌏🌱🌈 #mother #whenua #rainbow #love

Today a small group of us gathered at a friend's house to harvest her tomatoes and chop them up to make green tomato pickle. It was so much wholesome fun and gives me hope in what feels like dark times #mutualaid #foodsecurity #hope

We grew our first watermelon! It's delicious but tiny (size of a large orange).

My favourite t-shirt! Found in an op shop in Waikato, Aotearoa. #allyouneedislove #thrifted #queerjoy

Blue t-shirt with lighter block lettering that reads "all you need is aroha, whānau, tautoko!"

Found this awesome dinosaur-patterned skirt at the op shop today. Rocking it with my hairy legs #queerjoy #thriftstorefinds #riotsnotdiets

This is what resistance looks like. There is so much to fight but first we rest. We couldn't afford a holiday this summer but a cheap hammock kit turns my backyard into a resort #rest #resist #lowconsumptioncore

Love is planting flowers together and then waking up excited to see what new blooms the morning brings #queer #gardening #love #flowers

Baking carrot cake with these antique egg beaters gives me such queer joy. I'm using the tools of my foremothers but I'm making it gluten free and spicy because that's how my wife likes it 😁🧁 #baking #queerjoy #love
