This is the story of two herds, two countries and one enduring farming legacy
On the plains of Southland, New Zealand, Imbizi Farm carries the heritage of Zimbabwe in its name and the promise of stewardship in its soil. This is where our family grows potatoes, vegetables, livestock and roots.
A farm for growing, gathering and passing good land on better than we found.

Notes From The Farm
Imbizi Farm is our home. But it is more than that, too. It is the story of a family from Zimbabwe, named for the zebra, our totem, Imbizi, who crossed an ocean and found new ground in the far south of New Zealand.
​
We grew up with farming in our blood. In Zimbabwe, the land teaches you early: nothing good comes without patience, and nothing lasts without care. When we arrived in Southland, we recognised the same lesson written in a different landscape — big skies, honest winters, and soil that rewards those who respect it.
​
What began with a passion for dairy farming has grown into something wider: spray-free vegetables, grass-fed livestock, and potatoes we are genuinely proud of. We farm the way we were raised to — by hand where hands do it best, with the seasons rather than against them.
​
If you are here, it is because you believe, as we do, that good food comes from people you can name and land that is loved. Come and find us at the market. We will save you some spuds.
