Future Proof Your Farm - Grazing, Soil & Diversity

Join us for an inspiring and practical day at Mataa Hall & TMS Farms, Tracy Stewarts Beef Finishing & Dairy Grazing farm, east of Eltham, in South Taranaki.

This day aims to help farmers and the wider community of interest attending, walk away with an extra spring in your step, with some helpful support and ideas to help future proof your farm and our region. Let's take things next level for our local resilience. These days are always a great opportunity to learn and grow - together.

This is a catered event featuring delicious and nutritious local foods on the menu.

Tracy has been diving in, honing the wellbeing and resilience of her farm, through an increasingly regenerative approach since 2020.

She's been a regular at Taranaki ReGen events through these years, and was also part of the Regenerative Farming Pivot Research Project.
