Mike is a third generation Central Otago Orchardist who grew up lighting frost pots, wrangling tractors and eating his mother's famous apple puddings.

In 2013 he returned to Central Otago, establishing and running a successful orchard that produced apricots, cherries, plums, peaches, pears, apples, nectarines, greengages, mulberries and figs. A true fruit salad.

Mike has considerable experience across all orcharding activities and fruit crops that grow in Central Otago.

Fitting with the Farmland’s philosophy of helping everyone prosper, Mike finds that there is nothing more rewarding than helping growers produce amazing fruit.
