About
Still Milly is about creating sustainable, beautiful, handcrafted products which incorporate the goodness of Aotearoa’s native rākau.
Still Milly began with Teina’s desire to reduce plastic products and chemicals within her family home. Learning to create her own products enabled her to include only natural, quality ingredients which were sustainable and good for the whole whānau.
Completing a Tikanga- Rongoā course led her back to her roots and into the ngahere. Enriched with her knowledge of rongoā, Teina's ambition has led her to combine two of her passions: spending time in nature and creating natural and sustainable products. All Still Milly products include natives which are unique to Aotearoa.
Products are handcrafted with a lot of aroha, focusing on quality rather than quantity. Harvesting of rākau is undertaken by hand in accordance with tikanga Māori at a suitable time under the maramataka. The cold infusion method is used where possible to ensure as much goodness is extracted as possible.
The goal of Still Milly is to continually take steps towards a more sustainable future. All parcels are sent in 100% recycled and recyclable boxes made right here in New Zealand. $1 from every sale will go towards the planting of native trees.
