Join us for an authentic, sensory farm experience and learn how we work with nature to grow chemical-free produce.
We’ll get hands-on as we explore our 11-acre permaculture farm, including market gardens and food forest, and search for our free-range sheep, goats, pigs and chickens who love a good feed.
Our 60-minute Family Farm tour is designed for kids and their parents/carers.
FOR BOOKINGS: Family Farm Tours for the summer school holidays are now open for bookings via the Green Connect website HERE.
The 60-minute tours are designed for kids and their parents/carers. Tickets are $14 per person and kids aged two and under are free.
Adult tours are also available; these 75-minute tours offer adults without children an in-depth experience, exploring our market gardens and how we run an award-winning social enterprise.
REMAINING Family Farm Tour Dates:
Eight years ago, our vision was to turn a steep block of unused land in Warrawong, just south of Wollongong, into a thriving farm. Today the farm produces fruit, vegetables, herbs, eggs, honey and free-range meat using organic principles.
As well as growing fair food, the farm creates jobs for young people and former refugees. Last year, Green Connect grew and distributed 35,250kg of chemical free food and employed 144 former refugees and young people.
We’d love you to come and see what we’ve done with the place!
