Project Kai 🌱 Small market garden in the heart of Waihi
πŸ’š Spray free | no till | grown with love

03/04/2026

In the heart of WaihΔ«, a new market garden is taking root, grown from a shared desire to live and work more closely with the land.
After years in the city, Project Kai founders Tom Cardno and Bonnie Hu said they both felt β€œcalled toward a lifestyle” that was kinder to the land, more connected to nature, and more self-sufficient.
Together, their goal is to provide high quality, freshly harvested, spray-free produce for the WaihΔ« and WaihΔ« Beach communities all year round.

Thank you for everyone who stopped by, bought produce and chatted with us. See you again this Saturday 🧺

Our first week of trialing the temporary β€œFarm Stand” idea with a chilly bin and a table. With trust of the community to have it as an honesty stand with self serve payment and product πŸ₯—πŸ«œ
The first day we only sold 2 bunches of radishes and we were a bit defeated when taking the stand home… πŸ₯² But day 2 & 3 after asking help the community absolutely pulled through! We sold out 2 days in a row WOW πŸ’š so many lovely comments and some stopping by our driveway to check out the garden πŸ₯°
We’re going to our first farmers market this Saturday! 🧺
