The Kamokamo is ready for harvest at the Summer Solstice
Maruaroa o Raumati is the Summer Solstice, named for the Goddess of Summer - Hine Raumati. At the solstice, she sends her husband, Te Ra, on a journey back to his winter bride, Hine Takurua. Flowers are abundant, the Pohutukawa is spectacular and some crops become ready for harvesting. The Kamokamo should be ready about now.
