WAPF in wellington





The Weston A Price Foundation Chapter for Wellington New Zealand was originally set up in January 2008

In some parts of the world, the WAPF seems to focus firstly on education and also has a big emphasis on activism (on issues like raw milk)

To be honest, we tend to mostly hook people up with the whole foods they are searching for, and because the demand is greater than the supply, we are not so much publicising WAPF foods as rationing them out to keen buyers. So while other chapters around the world are publicly promoting the foods WAPF recommends, we almost avoid all public mention of some of them. But demand has gone crazy anyway.



WAPF Membership

Although the basis of much of our philosophy about food is based on a WAPF background, we are more of a local food network with a handful of WAPF members. But it would be great to have a larger and more active Wellington chapter, and the four quarterly journals that members receive are well worth the membership fee alone.

Although our local food activity is probably bigger and more active then it first appears, we don’t actually have many Wellington WAPF members. If you would like to join, read more here.


The growth in interest in the past year is huge – it would be great to see a whopping great pile of new members too, so that we would look like we are going off ;-)
