Gold Medal Winners:

Hōhepa Danbo

For the second year in a row, Hōhepa Hawke’s Bay has also been named BYD Auto New Zealand Sustainability Champion. The judges highlighted their longstanding commitment to organic, biodynamic, and regenerative farming, while producing exceptional quality food and creating meaningful employment opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities. A combination that truly is “hard to beat.”

This success is a beautiful reflection of the care, skill, and dedication that flows from the land and the herd, right through to the hands that craft every cheese with legacy and intention. It’s a true celebration of community, purposeful work, and exceptional quality.

Ngā mihi nui to the entire Hōhepa team - from the farm to the dairy - and to everyone who supports this incredible mahi.

Congratulations, Hōhepa Hawke’s Bay! 🌱🥛🧀✨
