Pahau

Pahau farm was purchased by The Proprietors of Rakaia in 2006.

Operating as a milking platform.

Pahau farm is a 186 ha farm.

Tahu a Tao

The farm lies alongside the traditional Ngāi Tahu coastal travel route between lakes Wairewa and Waitarakao (Washdyke Lagoon), which connected Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū (Banks Peninsula) with the kāinga of South Canterbury, including the prominent pā of Te Waiateruatī. The 216-hectare Tahu o Tao farm, south of the Rakaia river mouth, is named after a traditional kāinga mahinga kai located on the coastline nearby. In the 1879 Smith-Nairn Commission, Ngāi Tahu kaumātua gave evidence that foods gathered there included tuna (eel), paraki (smelt), kōkopu (native trout), pānako (fish sp.), inaka (whitebait), tutu, wharetata and poketara (sp. of mushroom).

Hororata

Purchased in June 2017, the 184 ha property had been converted in 2008.
