The main fig farm. Figs are one of life s great joys (if you don t agree, best to skip this one) and this humble edible flower is celebrated in full glory at the region’s very own figgery. Te Mata Figs is an organic farm and cafe in Havelock North, and owner Helen and Murray Douglas seriously give a fig about the 30 varieties they grow.
