Projects
Island made Compost
We practise biological soil
management, a key
component of which is
producing our own compost
from locally sourced
materials.
Fixing our Sea Access
We are renovating our
gateway for sea transport to
and from the mainland – the
breakwater at Paterson’s
Inlet.
Farm
We’re in the process of
introducing animals and
creating a diverse orchard-
farm operation using so-far
unutilised land.
About Us
Growing with Nature, Not Against IT
We are committed to reducing our chemical and carbon footprints and revitalising the soil upon which our avocados grow. We practice regenerative farming and integrated pest management techniques that utilise beneficial predator insects and organic fertilisers.
Accommodation
Relaxation Island Style
Nestled on the western coastline next to what is reportedly New Zealand’s second oldest Pohutukawa tree, The Batch blends rustic charm with relaxed
island living, ideal for unwinding and
reconnecting.
Cozy Bedrooms
Two bedrooms with queen beds, bathroom, kitchen and living area offer a comfortable retreat for up to four people after a day outdoors or on the water.
View Mt. Maunganui from Sea
Wake up to an uninterrupted view of Mt. Maunganui or watch the
sun set over Papamoa, where sea and sky meet in radiant unison.
The Barge
Designed for Island Operations
Our 15-metre aluminium barge is a stable, heavy-duty vessel built for coastal and island operations. Its twin hulls provide excellent balance and generous deck space, ideal for transporting machinery, materials, and supplies with confidence. Carrying capacity: 9 tons, 7 passengers.
