Monthly Young Farmers Sessions in Pahiatua

What Happens at This Session

Adults aged 16 to 31 who are keen on farming and rural skills will find this monthly gathering a practical way to connect and learn. The session suits both those starting out and anyone with some experience who wants to develop further through young-farmers activities.

When you arrive you can expect a relaxed yet focused evening of group discussion, short presentations on current farming topics, and opportunities to share ideas with others in the same age group. The format encourages questions and peer support rather than formal lectures, making it easy to join in at any level.

This young-farmers session meets on the first Monday of every month, giving regular attendees a steady rhythm for building knowledge and contacts without a heavy time commitment.

• Explore practical farming techniques and seasonal challenges
• Take part in leadership and personal development exercises
• Network with other young people working in or around agriculture
• Learn about member-only events and industry opportunities
• Share experiences in a supportive group setting
• Build confidence through hands-on discussion and planning

The hosting club keeps the focus on real-world skills and community connections that help participants grow in their rural careers.

Getting to the Post Office Hotel

The meeting takes place at the Post Office Hotel in central Pahiatua. On-street parking is available nearby and the venue sits within easy reach of the main road through town, making it straightforward for those driving from surrounding rural areas. Public transport options are limited so most people arrange their own lifts or carpool.
