  • Description

    Description

    We are a family on an organic homestead in Torere, Bay of Plenty. Our farm overlooks the fields & orchards, with the ocean in the background. The gardens provide us with food all year round, and we frequently visit the ocean to fish and set craypots. The majority of the food comes from the land and sea.

    We have 2 dogs, 1 cat and multiple chickens. Mike is a talented woodworker. He has built all the buildings and structures on the property, in which all the timber has been milled on his woodmizer portable sawmill. Claire's passion is in the garden , you can feel the vibrancy when walking through, and hear the love when she speaks of what is going on in it.

    John, Dan, and Ben are Mike and Claire's sons, and they are often visiting or living on the farm.
