Sunny Hawke's Bay has a reputation as New Zealand's food and wine country. From stone fruits and truffles to apples and wine, the region's fertile soil produces kai we all love.
With seven major rivers flowing through the region, we're spoilt for choice in places to visit for whitebaiting, fishing, water sports and horse-riding.
We also love hiking or biking up (and down) Te Mata peak. From the top, we enjoy the panoramic views of the region.
With so much to treasure, we all need to play our part to defend Hawke's Bay from the risks of pests and diseases.
