NZ Country: Our Story

Growing up on the remote East Cape of New Zealand, our founder learned first-hand how the Māori guardians of the land use the Mānuka bush and other native botanicals to support whole-body wellbeing.  In this pristine region, the plants have evolved for millions of years away from outside influences, creating powerful phytonutrients found nowhere else on Earth.

NZ Country was born from a desire to share these time‑honoured remedies with the world—while protecting the land and the communities that steward it.  We partner directly with East Cape Māori whānau (families) to harvest Mānuka and other plants sustainably, ensuring that our oils and extracts are both potent and ethically sourced.

Our mission goes beyond skincare.  We believe true beauty starts with balance—between people and planet, and between modern science and ancestral wisdom.  Every product we make is designed to support your skin and your sense of wellbeing, so you can feel connected to nature wherever you are.
