Approximately 120km northwest of Whangarei, Kaitaia is Northland regions second largest commercial area and also the most northern town in New Zealand. A farming town, it busily supports sheep farming, cattle and dairy farming, vineyards and fruit growing - especially avocados. Kaitaia's airfield, just out of town - from where a daily air service began in 1947, makes access to the Far North simple, especially for the tourist actives which are abundant in the area. A day trip to Cape Reinga - a place of intense cultural and spiritual significance to Maori and marker of the extreme north-Western region point of New Zealand is just one of these activities.

We are currently undertaking a pilot employer recognition programme. As part of the pilot we are listing employers of volunteers within a brigade on the NZFS brigade web page.

This Brigade is proudly supported by the employers listed below. The NZFS acknowledges the support provided by these employers but does not seek to endorse any product or service provided and therefore the listing of these employers is in no way an endorsement by the New Zealand Fire Service.
