Tomtit Farms Story

Nestled in the heart of Matangi, central Waikato, Kirikiriroa, Aotearoa, we are more than just a farm - we believe in the power of food and the importance of taking care of our environment and Papatūānuku.

​

Tomtit Farm began as an empty paddock on family land in Matangi, Waikato and a dream to grow something real. Over six years, that bare field has become a seasonal flower and food farm rooted in organic and regenerative practices.

 

We grow slowly and intentionally, following the rhythms of nature and the principles of Hua Parakore, honouring both soil health and community connection. What started as a few vegetable beds has grown into pick-your-own flower gardens, seasonal seedling packs, and hands-on workshops that invite people to fall back in love with the whenua, and with growing food and flowers of their own.

 

Led by Brittany Stembridge, a farmer, new mum, and nutritionist. Tomtit Farm is as much about people as it is about plants. It’s a place to slow down, learn together, and celebrate the beauty (and mess) of seasonal growing.

 

Today, Tomtit Farm exists to inspire backyard gardeners, families, and flower lovers to create something beautiful and nourishing in their own lives, one seedling, one bouquet, one shared season at a time.
