Our Story

Western Harvest was first established in the late 1980’s when the Jones family purchased 16 acres of prime river silt- peat soil mix.

The fashionable fruits of that era were kiwifruit & boysenberries and alongside this we also planted blackberries, passionfruit, strawberries and later, Taylors Gold and Burr Bosc pears, then finally at the request of our Australian customers, rhubarb.

Our range is continuing to grow so please reach out if you have any requests.  You can email us at admin@westernharvest.co.nz
