520 _a"When Lisa Harper returned to her family's farm at Waterfall Bay, at the head of remote Mahau Sound, after years overseas working as a scientist, she showed all the pluck and entrepreneurial streak of the earlier generations of women in her family. The isolation wasn't going to deter her from starting a new business. After all, her grandmother and mother were made of stern stuff, coping with running stock, keeping an orchard, making cheese, operating a guest house, home-schooling children and only getting to 'town' every six weeks. Eight years later Lisa was an award winning traditional cheesemaker and a Nuffield fellowship winner when she had to make a major decision to wrench the family from Waterfall Bay to secure its future"--Publisher information.
