Ecological paradise with Kaweka x-factor

Located in the reliable and strong Puketitiri farming community, the custodians of the 564 hectare Taramoa Station have provided a visionary example of profitable farming while continuing to improve the environment.
Winning four awards in the East Coast 2020 Ballance Farm Environmental Awards, the current farming operation is also GAP accredited and has proven that regenerative farming methods can provide both sustainability and profitability, breeding and finishing livestock during difficult climatic periods (2020 drought).
Large portions of flat and easy contour, an excellent pasture renewal programme and a very reliable spring fed reticulated water system. Farming practices and excellent genetics provide premium returns through Atkins ranch in the premium USA lamb market and reserve grade Angus. All livestock finished to very good weights.
The boundary of 10 kilometres manuka rich Kaweka Forest Park provides several unique x-factor features including world class trophy Sika hunting, rare bird species including kiwi, kaka, kakariki, robins and bats and approximately 400 beehives collect high UMF manuka honey.
Excellent pest control ensures the native birdlife continues to thrive.
In excess of 23,000 native trees have been planted with over 100 hectares of fenced off regenerating bush and waterways mean recent fresh water legislation requirements are almost complete.
From a farming and aesthetic perspective, the land runs from flat and easy country to steeper breeding country with beautiful areas of native bush.
An excellent standard of farm improvements include a large five bedroom main homestead, a three bedroom cottage, supporting woolshed/implement sheds and stock yards all centrally located with an excellent standard of fencing and fantastic workability, with laneways providing very good stock and vehicle movement.
