Greg Hart

Raised on a family farm near Methven, mid-Canterbury, Greg earned a Bachelor of Agriculture from Massey and worked in an agri-business consultancy firm in Ashburton, as operations manager in a livestock export company and as grain marketing manager before beginning the farming journey with his wife Rachel and support from parents in 1996 at Mangarara Station Elsthorpe Hawkes Bay.

Greg is now committed to being part of the positive change taking place around the world to bring humanity back within the boundaries nature sets for us. He is transitioning the traditional sheep and cattle station to a farm of the future that creates balance by developing diverse, integrated, regenerative farming systems, restoring ecosystems through tree planting, sequestering carbon from the atmosphere and building healthy soil using holistic grazing techniques. The ethos for the farm is “Optimising Life.”
