Willy has been breeding stud stock at Anui, which neighbours Dannevirke most of his life. Carrying on Dandaleith Angus from his Father Bill. Willy has been heavily involved in the Cattle and Sheep Stud stock industry through his farming career, serving time on the various breeding groups, boards and stock judging - as well as running the Sheep section of the local A&P show.

John is the 4th Generation in our family to farm our Mangatuna Block. While partially retired, John is still passionate about his stock and dogs and has given a lot of his time to the local community over the years especially through the local Weber Dog Trial Club, among various other roles. John teamed up with Willy to bring the Dandaleith Cows out to the Mangatuna hills 20 years ago, which has resulted in the operation we have today.

George is the 5th generation to farm our Mangatuna property. Having moved back to his home farm in 2019 to where he was raised after working as a rural chartered accountant and rural banker.

Since returning to the farm George has been elected to the Angus New Zealand Board, where he serves as Treasurer, providing an opportunity to grow further, and bring those learnings back to the farm - and in turn - Dandaleith’s clients.
