“Taking the beach back to the paddock”​​​​​​​

Surfing For Farmers is a unique opportunity for New Zealand farmers to take a break from their all-consuming businesses and engage in outdoor activities, enjoy fresh air, exercise, and connect with fellow farmers, rural families, and industry professionals. 

Over the past eight years, SFF has experienced remarkable growth, expanding to 25 beaches nationwide. Local coordinators generously volunteer their time to provide this invaluable opportunity, offering a respite from the all-encompassing demands of rural life and fostering social connections within the community.

SFF recognises the importance of providing an outlet that liberates individuals from the daily grind and overwhelming to-do lists. By engaging in surfing activities, our farmers and growers gain a renewed perspective and prioritise their own self-care. This simple yet effective approach enables participants nationwide to place themselves at the forefront of their responsibilities.
