The
event is aimed at people living on lifestyle blocks, which can range in
size from 1 to 50 acres. There are an estimated 100,000 lifestyle
blocks in New Zealand, well over double the number of commercial farms
and a significant number of these lifestyle blocks are in the lower
half of the North Island.

The
field day features exhibits covering a whole range of goods and
services of special interest to lifestyle farmers. These include
tractors, ride-on mowers, fencing equipment, hydroponics, plants,
animals, general farm supplies, computers, green houses and a host of
other products and services.

The
event is also ideal for people who are thinking of buying a lifestyle
block at some time in the future.
