The flood-hit Christchurch growers who need your help
In May this year Christchurch had its fourth-heaviest day of rainfall on record.
The devastating floods left half of the
Untamed Earth Organic Farm
, near Halswell, under water.
For 15 years, they have been growing produce and selling veggie boxes and are a regular feature at Ohoka, Lyttelton and South Christchurch farmers' markets.
The farm's owners are
raising funds ahead of spring planting season
to help them. Company director Penny Platt speaks to Jesse.
