“The exquisite Roebuck farm in the famed Taranaki region of Aotearoa is nothing short of the best example of small-scale, commercial biointensive gardening
that we have seen.

Tanya and Jodi, their family and their team have not only created an incredible powerhouse of production, but also a system of great beauty.

Their integration of sheep into the broader landscape follows Holistic Management planned grazing principles and demonstrates high levels of skill and quality of output.

As the world reaches all manner of critical resource peaks, Roebuck Farm is one of the leading models to manage the necessary transition"

"I came in eager to learn about regenerative market gardening, but I left with so much more than just technical knowledge. I found a passion within myself that I didn’t know existed, a deep connection to the land and the processes that nurture it."

Jodi has been our go to through all stages of our design and bed layout as well as greenhouse selection, microgreen setup, wash and pack design and staff training. The seamlessness and ease with which this project has come together is both due to the direct input of Jodi as well as the fact that our lead market garden manager is trained by Jodi. The knowledge provided took into consideration everything from sun maximisation, wind direction, efficiency of process and labour, tool selection, NP1 certification and so much more.

What Jodi made possible through his knowledge and ready availability to answer any questions or concerns has made this a fabulously enjoyable experience. From breaking ground in mid October we were selling vege bags with 6 to 10 items weekly by mid January.

"Together, Jodi and Tanya have provided a world class training programme in a setting that is a must for any would-be market gardener. Jodi's willingness to share knowledge of all aspects of market gardening, together with a razor sharp business mind has been a game changer for me. No pretence, just down to earth real information to set you up for success in your own context"

I have just finished the market garden workshop with Jodi and Tanya. I cannot recommend this course enough! It was an incredibly inspiring, informative and entertaining experience. Jodi's wealth of knowledge and the level of detail he can go into crunching numbers and sharing his personal experiences of the many trials over decades that have failed or been successful is gold. His knowledge of the best gardening tools and machinery is next level. The food also that Tanya provided was five star!
Awesome people sharing vitally important information.
