Greengrower grow clean, sustainable, nutritious and deliciously fresh produce using vertical farming in Waikato.

Their produce grows from seed right through to harvest in a fully controlled environment that isn't impacted by stormy or unseasonal weather. The art is in the technology they use which mimics all the core characterises that a plant needs to grow. Greengrower's plants are given the perfect amount of light, food and tender loving care - everything they need to grow up big, delicious and nutritious!

The seeds are planted in trays before being lifted into a structure – similar to a conveyer – that has the ability to hold rows of produce. It uses techniques such as hydroponics to reduce soil and water use and is not subject to unseasonal weather meaning there is no need for pesticides or sprays.

As Greengrower's greens are grown in a fully controlled environment, they are able to keep pests and diseases out, so they do not use any sprays or pesticides.

We are proud to be among the first to support Tom and his team on their mission to produce sustainable greens. Greengrower's spray free, delicious, sustainable greens can be found in our Tory Street Fresh Market, Porirua and Masterton stores.

Altitude Peonies are export peony growers based in the historic gold mining town of Naseby, Central Otago. Owned and run by the Smith-Hazlett family, Altitude Peonies are enjoyed all over the world.

Even within the New Zealand growing scene, Naseby peonies get the lucky-last harvest. This is due to frigid winter temperatures and the area’s high altitude. While growers further north start picking in October, the first Altitude Peonies aren’t ready until late November.

We are extremely excited to have Altitude Peonies at Moore Wilson's for the first time and will continue to have deliveries direct from Naseby until late 2022.

More about Altitude Peonies and their family-run business can be found in the Life and Leisure Magazine.
