IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Before you book:
- The site is a working farm and visitors must participate in a safety briefing before entering.
- The terrain at the farm is particularly steep and slippery in parts. The guided tour involves a moderately strenuous walk and is not accessible for prams, wheelchairs, or people with moderate mobility issues. Infants will need to be carried. If anyone in your group isn’t able to participate in the tour, they are welcome to stay in the party space during the tour time.
- Plants love rain and so do we! We don’t cancel events in wet weather unless there is a dangerous storm. Rain (and mud!) is all part of the fun.
- Allergen advice: Our farm is home to domestic animals as well as bees, wasps, and macadamia trees. Please pack an EpiPen if allergic and keep it with you at all times.
All farm visitors must:
- Wear enclosed shoes or boots (no thongs or sandals allowed) and clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. Long pants are recommended.
- Bring a hat and sunscreen or rain gear, depending on the weather forecast.
Play & Picnic Days
Where: Green Connect Farm, 6 Anna Avenue, Warrawong
Dates and Times: See below for upcoming dates and to book your spot
Join us at the beautiful Green Connect Farm for an exciting session of outdoor play and farm exploration.
Our new Play & Picnic 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. We can’t wait to welcome you to our farm!
Please note: Everyone wishing to participate in a Play & Picnic Day, including adults and children, require a ticket to attend. Babies under 12 months are free.
