Great to see a throw-back to where it all began! 🥑

Back in 1966, avocados were still a novelty in New Zealand. Check out this iconic clip from the Hyundai Country Calendar archives featuring the Grey family, near Gisborne Avogrey Avocados

From early pioneers showing New Zealanders how to serve avocado on crackers to today, we’re proud to work alongside growers who have shaped Kiwi horticulture over generations! 💚
