Hurunui Farms

A drive north of Christchurch through the beautiful Waipara valley will not leave you disappointed. There’s a special vibe about the Hurunui Region which sets it apart from anywhere else in the country. Indeed, it’s fair to say that life changes when you enter the district. The Hurunui has always been famed for its diverse agricultural land, roaming rivers and hectares of land as far as the eye can see. Timo and Jonna are proud to call it home.

Timo and Jonna orignate from Germany and have lived in New Zealand for the last 17 years and now reside in Hawarden with their two children Lewis and Pippa. English is their second language and they are proud to call the Hurunui home on their 105 ha farm.

“My wife Jonna and our two children, Lewis and Pippa, all work in the business from collecting eggs, to deliveries, and now the children want to help to select the best meat to sell to you! We are German and have lived in New Zealand for 18 years, so English is our second language just in case we get misunderstood on the phone! Knowing where our food comes from and the effort that goes into producing it is paramount to us; the meat we sell is reared here on the farm or sourced from local Hurunui neighbouring farms.”

Diversification has been a focus for Hurunui Farms. It’s key aim is to invest in profitable rural businesses that create opportunities and enable the local community and economy to flourish. At Hurunui Farms you’ll find our Hurunui Omegga Egg business which is also flourishing, our farming stock of beef and sheep plus many crops that feed all of those animals.
