About the Hawke's Bay Fruitgrowers' Assn

The HBFA is a voluntary organisation set up to promote, foster and protect the fruit industry and to establish a closer bond of unity and co-operation amongst growers particularly those within the Hawke's Bay district.

Since 1899 it has provided a forum for discussion and action in matters relating to fruitgrowing in Hawke's Bay.

The Executive committee of the HBFA deals with common issues of concern to all fruitgrowers. Its Pipfruit, Summerfruit and Kiwifruit sector committees deal with issues specific to their particular product.

The HBFA employs a full time executive officer to provide secretarial and financial services. The day-to-day running of the association is funded by members subscriptions and is supplemented by the income from property investments and charitable trust bequests. This enables the HBFA to represent growers across a broad range of issues and to grant educational scholarships.  For more information on Scholarships and application procedures, click here
