Avocados - a healthy heart fruit

A little taster of the journey
Hi, I'm Anna and I am one of your Avo Keepers. We’ve owned our orchard for over 7 years and have planted it out with over 3,000 new avocado trees. It's located in Tapora, look it up, you’ll wonder why you haven't heard the name, it is so close to Auckland.
