Storm hits French's family farm in Te Puke killing animals and destroying crops

Support French's Farm in Recovering from Storm Damage

Te Puke, Bay Of Plenty

A terrible storm ripped through French's Farm, a boutique family operation on the outskirts of Te Puke that offers a variety of produce, herbs, honey and fresh eggs.

Many of us in Papamoa and Welcome Bay order from French's Farm weekly and are devastated to hear the news of animals losing their lives, crops destroyed, greenhouses and chook houses flattened, and exterior damage to the family home.

With no insurance and bills to pay, donations are greatly appreciated.
