The land licensed to the Trust still retains all normal Regional Park purposes and is accessible to the public under the same terms and conditions as the rest of the Regional Parkland. The trust with its volunteers and other members of the community run a special Farm Day event every Waitangi Day, where activities like sheep shearing, tractor rides and pony rides are offered to raise money for the running of the trust. We have also planted 40 Heritage Fruit trees around the property.
