In 1913, a young 17-year-old came north from Wellington to develop 1700 acres of bush.
Three generations of his descendants have continued hisdream and today Pairama Station is 867 hectares of extensively developed pasture with pockets of native bush.
A development programme in recent years included paddock subdivision, reticulated bore water to troughs into three-quarters of the paddocks and a comprehensive fertiliser programme has projected that Pairama can carry over 7000 stock units.
The 5-Stand two-storey wool shed, and concreted cattle and sheep yards is at the hub of the farming operation.
The 4-bedroom homestead was extensively renovated in 1985. A 3-bedroom workers cottage is situated to capture the morning sun all situated only 43 kilometres from Pukekohe.
