Peter Collins is the Santa of spuds.
For the second year running, the Pareora farmer has rallied his family to make up 10kg bags of potatoes to deliver to every household in the small town.
Last year's delivery was during the Alert Level 4 lockdown, but with different advice from police this year, the Collins clan had to wait until Level 3 to carry out the drop-offs.
Three generations of the family work together on Dalmore Farm, so many hands made light work of bagging up the potatoes, loading the truck and doing the delivery.
"We stayed in our own bubble, and went out. Nobody really sees us. We just duck in and out, and leave them at letterboxes.
