Hawke's Bay business Mangarara: The Family Farm has won a national competition to seek out the very best in fledgling "good" food businesses.
In its third year, the Good Food Boost competition saw four winners chosen for their commitment to give back to society, or their protection of the environment.
Owners Greg and Rachel Hart provide meat packs from a regenerative agriculture farm in Hawkes Bay.
The Good Food Boost initiative is part of a NZ-Wide campaign, Good Food Nation and is organised by the Sustainable Business Network (SBN) and Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development (Ateed).
SBN Project Lead said the four businesses "tick all the boxes".
