High Country Farm

Nadia Lim, her husband Carlos and their two kids move from Auckland to embark on a new life as farmers on the South Island of New Zealand. Their goal is to fulfil their dream of creating a diverse, sustainable farm.

Nadia and Carlos start working with barley, the crop that Royalburn is most famous for, and take on the ambitious project of growing five million sunflowers.

In order to expand his flock, Carlos makes a huge purchase at a southern sheep auction. However, there is an impending drought that is likely to hit the district, which will create a shortage of feed.

When Nadia and Carlos are forced to seek offsite grazing, they decide to lease land from Motatapu Station which is even bigger than the one owned by Shania Twain.

Royalburn's Market Garden's orders increase after a change in management; Nadia prepares a vegetarian quiche.

Carlos travels to Christchurch to see how barley is malted for beer and then brewed.
