Finding belonging, growing great people

Since the first Club was established in 1927, NZ Young Farmers has been an integral part of New Zealand’s food and fibre sector, supporting young people across our membership network.

More About NZYF

I first joined Young Farmers when I was at uni which I found to be a great way to meet other students and get involved with social activities. I then joined the Ngarua Young Farmers Club in Morrinsville when I moved to the Waikato. The club has allowed me to get off the farm, meet like-minded people and be involved with the Morrinsville community.”
