About the Growers

What we're made from...
This is how we started, with a stall giving access to export quality fruit to the locals. We're just extending the service!
Who are the growers?

Garry Cliff
Whangarei
In 1979, the Cliff family began their journey on a 70-hectare property, planting diverse crops and focusing on avocados, which thrived in Northland’s volcanic soil. Over time, their orchards flourished, becoming the region's largest avocado producers and the first to yield over 100,000 trays.

From a small honesty stall in Omokoroa, this family-owned orchard business has grown into a beloved source of fresh, high-quality fruit for the community. For over 27 years, Phil has built and grown innovative tunnel house-grown avocados.
