“This is more than just kumara - it’s a family legacy.”
We caught up with Blake and Damaris Simpkin, the third generation behind Fieldco in Dargaville, to learn what goes into growing one of New Zealand’s most iconic vegetables.
From paddock to plate, every crop is grown with care, passion, and a commitment to great flavour.
Chefs, kumara deserves a spot on your menu this winter. 🍠🇳🇿
