Order flowersFeilding sits on the Manawatū Plains, 20 km north of Palmerston North on State Highway 54. About 17,650 people live here, and the town has won New Zealand's Most Beautiful Town award 16 times. It was established in 1871 by the Emigrants and Colonists Aid Corporation and named after Colonel William H. A. Feilding, one of its directors; the first settlers arrived in January 1874.

Friday is the busiest day in town. The saleyards in the town centre have operated for over 125 years, and on sale day around 15,000 sheep pass through 330 pens. The Feilding Farmers Market is held every Friday in Manchester Square and has run for over 15 years. If your recipient is a farmer, a Friday delivery may find them at the yards rather than at home, so add a phone number and consider another weekday.
Manfeild: Circuit Chris Amon, on the southern edge of town, opened in 1973 and was renamed after the Formula One driver in November 2016. Manfeild Park also hosts Central Districts Field Days each March, described as New Zealand's largest regional field days with over 27,000 visitors. The 2027 dates are 18 to 20 March, so expect busy roads and accommodation around then.
Feilding is the main town of the Manawatū District, and many recipients live on rural roads around it. A rural address uses 'RD' plus a number, written as 'RD 1' with no dots or extra spaces, followed by the mailtown and postcode. Copy the address exactly as the recipient writes it. NZ Post stopped Saturday parcel deliveries to most rural addresses in 2024, so weekday delivery is the safer choice for an RD address, and rural addresses can take longer.
For an older relative in care, Wimbledon Villa is at 204 Manchester Street; include their full name and room number if you know it. Feilding High School, established in 1921, has a roll of about 1,682, so the end of the school year brings prizegivings; our graduation flowers guide has ideas.
If the person you are thinking of is a patient at Palmerston North Hospital, note that most wards there are flower free. Check with the ward before sending, or have flowers delivered to their home in Feilding when they are discharged. If you are sending flowers after a death, our sympathy flower guide helps with what to send and write.
Put the recipient’s ward, room or the funeral director’s name on the order so the florist can find them.
Busy days book out early, so order ahead for Feilding.
