The place
A pristine valley at Taku Paka, Kano
Entari Farm & Nursery is at Taku Paka, Kano and the surrounding areas of Ziro. The house works orchards in this valley — Kano and neighbouring plots — where kiwi is grown in the natural way and brought in by the people who tend the vines.
Grown the natural way
Kiwi at Entari is raised without inorganic chemical fertilisers. The valley feeds the vine.
Hand-plucked
Fruit is picked by hand by local farmers — each lot from a person, a plot and a day.
Farmers hold the work
The timeshare and the picking days put more of the crop — and the say — with the growers around Kano.

For visitors
Kiwi owning and fruit picking
Visitors can take the Kiwi Owning and Kiwi Fruit Picking Experience — a practical turn in the orchard, from vine to crate, with the farmers who grow the fruit.
Through the Annual Timeshare Program you may purchase a kiwi plant, keep a season's bond with the valley, and farm in a way that lasts. The same work gives local farmers more authority in the crop, and a clearer share in what the land returns.
