Wool power
Kio Kio farmers Jess and Kieran White have found an innovative way to give excess wool a new lease on life, turning it into natural garden pellets that nourish plants, retain moisture and reduce weeds. Through their growing business the pair are helping gardeners around New Zealand embrace a sustainable alternative while adding value to a onceunderappreciated farm resource. • See: Pellets with purpose, Page 4 Starting from

September is the month when Waikato Regional Council rates notices arrive, so it seems a good time to ask a fairly simple question: what do we actually get for our rates? It is a reasonable question. Every household and business is watching costs, and as councillors we have a responsibility to make sure every dollar collected is being spent wisely. Regional council rates can sometimes be harder to understand than district council rates because much of what we pay for isn’t something we see on a daily basis. You don’t necessarily see the flood protection infrastructure keeping water away from our communities. You may not notice the work going on to control invasive weeds and pests until they threaten your farm, lake or river. You may not think about regional biosecurity until something like gold clam arrives in our waterways. And you may only think about public transport when you actually need it. These are some of the less visible but very important jobs of our regional council. Our regional rates help fund flood protection and river management, environmental monitoring, biosecurity and pest control, public transport, regional planning and emergency management, among other responsibilities. Council’s work programme is built around balancing legal responsibilities, environmental risks, community priorities and the resources available to us. For 2026/27, councillors agreed to a 0.9 per cent increase in rates revenue from existing ratepayers. That is considerably lower than the 4.2 per cent increase signalled in the previous Long-Term Plan
By Liz Stolwyk
and was achieved partly by using an unallocated prior-year surplus and making changes through the budget process. I think that is important — but I also think the conversation needs to be bigger than the percentage increase. For me, the real test is whether ratepayers can see a clear connection between what they pay and what council delivers. Are we concentrating on the things regional government genuinely needs to do? Are we protecting our communities from flooding? Are we dealing with biosecurity threats before they become much more expensive problems? Are our public transport services delivering value? Are environmental regulations practical and achieving the outcomes we want? And perhaps most importantly, are
we constantly asking whether there is a better, more affordable way of doing something? Being a regional councillor isn’t simply about deciding whether rates should go up or down. It is about making choices about what we do, what we don’t do, and what represents good value for the people who pay the bill. I don’t expect ratepayers to agree with every decision we make. But I do believe they should be able to understand why we made it. So when that rates notice arrives this month, have a look at it. Ask what your regional rates are paying for — and, just as importantly, ask us whether we are delivering enough in return.
Hut opening delayed Tongariro Northern Circuit trampers will have to wait an extra two months to use the new Oturere Hut after construction delays caused by poor weather. The hut and campsite, closed after last year’s fires, were expected to open next month, but the Department of Conservation (DOC) has pushed the booking date back to December 18 because contractors are still working on the hut. Visitors with affected bookings will get the opportunity to change their booking or receive a full refund. “We appreciate this is disappointing for those who had booked to stay in the brand-new hut, but unfortunately it has been unavoidable,” said DOC principal ranger
Jenny Hayward. “When you do book the hut, you’ll now be able to include it as part of the full Great Walk circuit. “Mangatepopo Track is a critical link between Whakapapa Village and Mangatepopo Hut, and without it the Tongariro Northern Circuit hasn’t been a circuit.” Progress has been made in repairing structural damage on Mangatepopo Track, impacted by fires in late 2025, and the track is on course for a summer reopening. The Tongariro Northern Circuit is a three or four-day hike through varied volcanic landscapes including parts of the Tongariro Alpine Crossing.

Even winners struggle From the outside, 2025 looked like a perfect year for Waikato farmer Hugh Jackson. After years of competition, the 27-year-old achieved a long-held goal when he won FMG Young Farmer of the Year, one of the country’s most prestigious farming titles. The win brought media appearances, speaking engagements and recognition from across the industry. But Jackson says the reality behind the achievement was more complicated. Speaking at this year’s FMG Young Farmer of the Year Grand Final, Jackson admitted the title came with unexpected pressure. “Imposter syndrome definitely played a part,” he said. “On numerous occasions I’ve caught myself thinking, ‘Now you’re the Young Farmer of the Year, you better make a good job of taking the family farm through another generation. What would people think if things went pear-shaped?’” Jackson works on his family’s Te Akau farm, north of Raglan. The farming business has been in the family since his great-grandfather bought land there after returning from World War II in 1947. Today, the operation spans about 1800 hectares, finishes around 2000 bulls annually and runs 2500 ewes. As a fourth-generation farmer, Jackson says he feels a strong responsibility to continue building on what previous generations created. That pressure was heightened after winning the national title. “When I look back over my life, there have been benefits from having high expectations and pushing myself,” he said. “But it has also driven me to breaking point when I’ve needed support from friends, family and health professionals.” Jackson believes many farmers can relate to balancing ambition with wellbeing.
He said people often look at successful farmers and assume they have everything sorted, when in reality everyone faces struggles at different stages of life. A turning point came after reading farmer Doug Avery’s book Resilient Farmer. One of the lessons that resonated was learning to spend less time on day-to-day operational work and more time on leadership and strategic thinking. Returning to the family farm meant stepping into a management role rather than trying to do everything himself. “There are not enough hours in the day for me to carry out all the operational tasks that need doing,” Jackson said. Instead, he has focused on building a strong team culture and improving his leadership skills. That includes taking a more proactive approach to checking in with staff. Rather than simply asking team members how they are, Jackson asks them to rate their energy levels out of 10. “If somebody says five or six out of 10, it gives us an opportunity to catch up afterwards and figure out what’s going on,” he said. Jackson says one of the biggest lessons he has learned is that tough times are normal and farmers should not be afraid to talk about them. “We all go through tough times and it’s just a case of making sure we’re open and honest with ourselves and others around us when we’re feeling rough,” he said. “Everyone has those times and you’ve got to admit when you’re not feeling great and try and figure things out.” For Jackson, winning Young Farmer of the Year remains a career highlight. But he hopes the message people take from his story is not about trophies or titles. It’s that even the winners sometimes need help.
A memorial stone on the Jackson family’s Te Akau farm commemorates John and Margaret Jackson, whose purchase of the property in 1947 laid the foundations for four generations of farming. Alongside it is FMG Young Farmer of the Year 2025 Hugh Jackson and one of the farm’s working dogs. Photo: Supplied

An idea born in the family garden has blossomed into a growing business for Kio Kio farmers Jess and Kieran White, writes Jesse Wood. When Kieran and Jess White moved to Kio Kio in June 2020, it was a homecoming for one and a vast change of scenery for the other. Six years on, they’re enjoying life on the dairy farm near Ōtorohanga and have a resourceful side hustle providing a natural option for gardeners. Kieran had grown up on the family dairy farm in Maihiihi, 10 minutes away, while nutritionist Jess is from Auckland. The pair met in Auckland and it wasn’t long before they were looking at going farming.
“After I first met Kieran’s family I knew that he would be happier farming rather than working in the city,” Jess says. “Kieran grew up around farming. His family has been dairy farming in the Waikato for generations but he had been working overseas and in Auckland for years. “Six months later, we began hunting for a farm.” Long term, Kieran knew that he wanted the rural lifestyle for his own family. “Kieran likes that fact that he can see the outcome of his work immediately and finds

it satisfying to be building something for himself and his family,” Jess says. “Working outside is mostly enjoyable too. “We like the flexibility it gives us as a family and the time we get to spend together. “We have a young daughter and really appreciate how much time we get to spend with her – it just wouldn’t be like that if we both still worked corporate jobs in Auckland.” The Whites’ 80-hectare property is known as Green Park Dairy. Here they run their Cozy Crops business – an innovative way of using excess wool – as well as milking 240 cows. They had originally been milking 800 to
1000 sheep but transitioned to dairy cows two years ago. Cozy Crops, a natural fertiliser and mulch, are 100 per cent wool pellets made for the garden. “It really came out of not wanting to see any of our wool go to waste, we wanted to make the most of what we had,” Jess says. “The pellets feed the soil, help retain moisture, reduce weed growth as well as reducing slug and snail burden. “They can be used in planting to help feed the roots and hold moisture and then used on the surface of the soil as a mulch.

Kieran and Jess White met in Auckland and moved to Kio Kio in 2020.
“Once the dry pellets are watered, the wool puffs up and knits together to form a dense mulch. “This mulch will last 12-18 months or until you dig it into the soil.” Moving into the dairy cow industry has freed up more time to work on projects like Cozy Crops. “We loved the sheep, but it was very laborious,” Jess says. “While we still have a few sheep on farm, the wool used in Cozy Crops is now sourced from other sheep dairy farms in the area.” When they started the company in July 2024, the goal was to add value to an undervalued resource. The business, and consumers’ gardens, have been growing ever since. “I am a nutritionist and knowing where our food comes from and how it’s grown matters a lot to me,” Jess says. “The idea of a natural way to help people grow their own food just made sense. “We started using the wool we had in our e own garden and found it so useful.
“We then looked at ways to improve on it, to make it user friendly and accessible for people who don’t have a paddock full of sheep. “The name Cozy Crops just fit – the wool wraps around your plants and keeps them cozy while they grow.” The production process is simple. There are no binders or additives to turn it into a pellet. “But the exact way we make the pellets is still top secret. “It took us a good six months of trial and error to get the wool into a pellet form, which would still fluff up once wet and turn into a perfect mulch.” Jess says they have converted hundreds of gardeners across the country into wool fanatics. “It’s really reassuring to see the wool industry as a whole improve in value in the last few years,” Jess says. “As people move away from synthetics like plastic weed matting and man-made fertilisers, I hope to see an even bigger shift towards natural resources like wool.”

Legacy on the hill More than 120 years after the Wallis family first farmed Rockhill, a Century Farms Award is recognising six generations who helped shape the Roto-o-Rangi property, writes Chris Gardner.

Bruce and Andra Wallis are weighing up building a hut on the highest point of Rockhill - a Roto-o-Rangi lookout where family history, hard work and the wider district stretch out below. The hilltop sits near the remains of an old redoubt, where trenches are still visible

to the family members now shaping its future. In the early days, about two-thirds of the property was unbroken peat swamp, thick with blackberry, rushes, tea tree and large stumps. The rest was rolling hill country. The family’s long 120-year tenure was recently recognised with a Century Farms Award. Bruce’s great-grandfather, Stanley, helped break in the peat after World War I. Dairying followed with the first cowshed in 1920, and for the next
century a Jersey herd milked once a day was the backbone of Rockhill. That changed in 2020, when the family sold the dairy herd and shifted into beef. “We just wanted to do something different, and get more of a balance, and the beef has allowed that to happen,” Bruce said. It was a major decision for a farmer who has spent almost his whole life on the property, apart from a short stint at Massey University where he earned a Bachelor of Agriculture degree. “It was a big call to sell the cows. We

were milking about 240.” The farm now runs 260 Charolais beef cattle and produces about 2000 bales of hay and haylage each year. “I think we can be very proud,” Bruce said. “There’s a saying that it takes about four generations to make a peat farm conversion, and I am the fourth generation.” The next generation is already involved. Bruce and Andra’s son, Jack, works on the farm with his wife, Rosanna, and their 14-month-old son, Cooper Jack. “He wants to drive everything,” Bruce said of Cooper, the sixth generation connected to Rockhill. Their daughter, Cassandra, lives in Australia but hopes to return home one day. “I think she will be back,” Bruce said. “She would like to live on the farm.” Rockhill is also home to a quarry, operating since 1960 and supplying basecourse for farm races and tracks across the district and beyond. It usually runs five days a week, with seasonal peaks and quieter spells. The family has also found time for community events. In 2010, they recreated the Field of Dreams, complete with a baseball grandstand, and operated it for a couple of seasons. They later hosted a 100-tractor rally during the year the national Fieldays agricultural trade show was cancelled because of the pandemic. Bruce and Andra travelled to Lawrence, in the South Island, to receive the plaque, which he plans to hang in the farmhouse hallway. They were encouraged to enter by other recipients. “I thought if we don’t do it now, we will leave it too late,” Bruce said. “They have all got the same passion.” For Bruce, the award is more than a milestone. It recognises the generations who turned swamp and hill country into a working farm — and the generations still finding their place on Rockhill.

EPOAs When contemplating one’s mortality, an enduring power of attorney (EPOA) is important. This is not, disappointingly, a magical power that attorneys possess, but rather a document allowing you to appoint someone of your choosing to manage your affairs when you no longer can. Choose your attorney wisely. The attorney may need to deal with lots of paperwork, at short notice. Don’t appoint your unreliable workmate or that cousin who still owes you money from 1997. Choose before it is needed - an EPOA witnessing is something only certain people (mostly lawyers) can do. This witness must certify they believe you understand what you’re doing and aren’t being unduly pressured. This can’t be done if you no longer have capacity to manage your own affairs. Unlike a forgotten gym membership, an EPOA only works if people know about it. Who the lawyer holding the original is, is easily forgotten over the years (like the gym membership). Make sure your family members know where your EPOA is held. Finally, when it comes to an EPOA making the initial phone call is the hardest, and longest bit. Don’t put it off any longer.
