Short summary
Addressing soil health and food security challenges requires weaving different ways of knowing. This paper presents a case study from Aotearoa/New Zealand, showing how combining soil science with mātauraka Māori (Māori knowledge) helps reveal past food growing practices, guiding efforts to restore traditional horticulture and enhance Māori soil health. This study also offers a practical example of integrating knowledge systems to tackle complex environmental issues in real-world contexts.
