FUTURE WHENUA March 13 -15
Haere Mai, to the next edition of the Future Whenua Summit.
For our fifth installment, we remain committed to merging diverse perspectives and fostering collaborations that push the boundaries of traditional farming. Expect to engage with solution-makers, local leaders, celebrate land-shaping innovators, get the chance to workshop big ideas, enjoy high-quality kai, and, of course, have a great time with fellow earth and farming enthusiasts.
Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the event. We’re just as excited as you are to see how this year’s summit unfolds in such a vibrant and dynamic setting.
Schedule Coming Soon!

2025 Future Whenua Field Trip
In 2025 we held our first Future Whenua Field Trip which highlight three awesome projects in the area.
Our field trip gives us the opportunity to see, feel and experience the work of some of Central Otago’s pioneering regenerates ahead of the summit.
We hope to bring something Similar in 2026!
The Gift Economy
We operate FWS in the spirit of the gift economy. It is our pleasure to host this event and don't want cost to be a barrier to attendance (comparable Ag events range from $200 to $800).
We use a ‘pay what you can’ model, encouraging equity.
We thank you for your attendance and contributions.
