Hello. I am Colin Nash and run the Woodlands Red Devon stud which we established in 1992.
I am passionate about the Devon breed and believe it has a big role to play in the production of quality beef in NZ.
Colin.
After farming Devon X Cattle from the mid 70's we formed the Tapuwae Stud in 1980 after visiting the first World Devon Conference in UK.
We run 110 Breedplan Recorded Registered Cows from which we have recently exported semen and embryos.
Previous Council experience with a 3 year break. We farm at Matauri Bay.
My Husband Steve and I have been involved in the Red Devon Cattle Breeders Association for a number of years.
We have followed with interest and support the on going promotion of this very worthy Breed.
We are presently building our Breeding herd of 20 cows on our 23hectare property north east of Stratford.
I hope too promote the Red Devon Breed further in New Zealand.
I have been breeding Polled Devons since 1980 having changed from Herefords.
Now Farming in the Far North (Mangonui) with 18 Registered Breedplan Recorded cows and followers.
