Following the success of the Olives New Zealand Conference 2012, the 2013 will once again be held at the Auckland Airport Sudima Hotel. The date will be Saturday, 16 March, followed by a National Field Day on the Sunday at Simunovich Olive Estate. The Executive has decided to stay with Auckland for Conference 2013 due to easy access for flights within New Zealand and from Australia, and good deals on flights from most centres. The location, etc will be reviewed again for 2014 based on attendee feedback.
