Farm Picnic & Tour

Our Farm Picnic & Tour Days offer a fun and educational outdoor experience for families and people of all ages, with more opportunities to enjoy time on the farm than ever before. Spend up to 3 hours in our beautiful Children's Garden, where kids have lots of choice for free play, including sand pit, mud kitchen, recycled and natural loose parts and more. You’ll also head out on two mini farm tours, offered in small groups throughout the session, to meet and feed our pigs*, sheep, goats and chickens, explore our organic market gardens, smell our compost, and learn a bit about how we grow food sustainably. Bring a waste-free snack and a small picnic rug (if you don't want to sit on the grass, rocks or logs) to make the most of what is sure to be a fun and enriching morning!Located in Warrawong NSW, just south of Wollongong, Green Connect is an award-winning social enterprise with a mission to employ and support former refugees and young people with complex barriers to employment.
