Good things take time and so it has been with the progress to where we are now. The 52 hectares at the end of the Kaiwhaiki Rd was purchased by the Oskam family in 1988. While we farmed it as a sheep and beef block at the beginning we could see it had so much more to offer than a great place to raise a family. Before long we had an orchard and had starting our long term plan for planting trees.

In 2017 we decided it was time to bite the bullet and remove the stock from the land and complete our planting program with a view to the future.

Tom, our eldest son came home in 2020 to develop That Place Mountain Bike Park. So we now have trees, dams and trails all over the hill along with a very rustic woodshed.

What is next is developing Wellness Retreats and so for the last nine months our group of practitioners have been working together to craft a Wellness Retreat offering,
