Glenham farmers David, Alanna and Julie Clarke run their sheep breeding and finishing and dairy grazing business, Elgin Park Farms Ltd, on 315ha of gentle rolling to steep country in Eastern Southland, close to the western fingers of the Catlins Forest Park.

The Ballance Farm Environment Award judges said it was a beautiful property being farmed exceptionally well with an outstanding progress of environmental initiatives.  They said the focus around sustainability was evident with every management decision on-farm.
