The National Sustainability Showcase brings together industry leaders, policymakers, and farmers and growers from across Aotearoa to celebrate excellence, innovation, and leadership in sustainable food and fibre production. The evening culminates in the presentation of the prestigious Gordon Stephenson Trophy, awarded to the year’s National Ambassador for Sustainable Farming and Growing.
The judging process for the Gordon Stephenson Trophy draws on all eleven Ballance Farm Environment Awards Regional Supreme Winners. It includes on-farm assessments alongside a panel interview, with finalists evaluated on the strength of their farming operation across financial, social, and environmental performance, as well as their ability to articulate informed perspectives on sector-wide issues.
The National Sustainability Showcase offers a unique opportunity to be inspired, entertained, and to connect with like-minded professionals from across the country.
