Power Outage Doesn’t Darken Farm Day
Power Outage Doesn’t Darken Farm Day
Federated Farmers is commending Keith and Kim Riley for running the Tararua Farm Day completely on power from a portable generator.
“The Riley’s farm in Woodville is hosting Federated Farmers Farm Day right now. The farm is also known as home to cow 569, the world’s only life saving cow.
“It’s amazing because there’s no power at their property at the moment, so all the activities are being powered by portable generators.
“If that’s not an example of good old Kiwi ingenuity, I don’t know what is.
“Federated Farmers is extending a warm welcome to anyone in the region to come on down and see the spectacle for themselves.
“It’s a great chance for the public to see the high standards of environmental management at the Riley’s farm.
“Visitors can even explore what’s going on under their feet in a ‘CSI’ style bug investigation.
“The weather at the farm is great and it’s only a 20 minute drive from Palmerston North,” Mr Nicolson concluded.
