WORDS FROM OUR FARMERS
"What does responsible farming mean to us? It’s really all-inclusive, it’s environmental sustainability, it’s looking after the land, environment and water, it’s looking after the animals and our people."
- Cameron Henderson, Recipient of the Fonterra Responsible Dairying Award 2023
