Today I'm thrilled to tell you about our collaboration with Hunter Hills, where my good friend David creates products that are not just beautiful but embody the essence of sustainable living in New Zealand.
The Beginning of a Lasting Friendship
Over a decade ago, while exploring New Zealand's captivating landscapes as a backpacker, I met David, the visionary behind Hunter Hills. David’s dedication to sustainable practices at Hunter Hills and my dream of owning a business that reflects my values found common ground. A couple of years after our first encounter, I decided to make New Zealand my home, setting the stage for what would become Nomad Wholefoods. Our friendship, based on mutual respect and shared goals, has flourished, and I am so happy to provide a platform to showcase his incredible work and bring these eco-friendly products closer to you.
Hunter Hills: More Than Just Jerseys
In addition to jerseys, Hunter Hills offers a selection of blankets that capture the natural elegance and ruggedness of the New Zealand landscape. These blankets are perfect for those chilly evenings or simply as a comforting companion during quiet nights at home. They, like the jerseys, are made with organic wool, ensuring that each product supports sustainable practices and reduces environmental impact.
Both Hunter Hills and Nomad Wholefoods share a profound commitment to sustainability. David’s approach goes beyond just manufacturing products; it involves nurturing the land that feeds the sheep that provide the wool. This holistic approach ensures that the impact on the environment is minimized, preserving the natural beauty of the Hunter Hills for future generations.
David also produces a range of organic meat boxes. These boxes feature premium cuts from animals raised with the highest welfare standards on the farm, ensuring a product that’s both delicious and ethically sourced. It’s a fantastic way to support local sustainable farming and enjoy the true taste of New Zealand.
Eco-Friendly Rustic Farmstay Experience
David has opened his farm to visitors through the Hunter Hills Farmstay, an eco-friendly retreat that allows you to experience life on a working organic farm. This rustic stay not only connects you with nature but also educates on the practices that make Hunter Hills a model of sustainable farming. It’s a unique opportunity to see how committed David is to his land and livestock, all while enjoying the tranquility of rural New Zealand.
