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.

Private Farm Tour

We invite you and your group to join us for a private tour at Green Connect farm!

Just 13 minutes’ drive south of Wollongong CBD you’ll discover Green Connect Farm, an 11-acre award-winning urban farm. Green Connect Farm follows organic farming and permaculture principles to produce vegetables, fruit, herbs, nuts, eggs, honey and free-range meat.

In addition to our public programs, we are pleased to offer customised tours for private groups to join us to explore the farm, meet our animals and learn about sustainable urban food production. We would be delighted to tailor a visit to cover topics and activities you’re most interested in, and to create a fun, interactive and thought-provoking experience for your whole group.

Private Farm Tours are great for garden clubs, scout/guide groups, playgroups, a big bunch of friends and family, or any group of people wanting to experience the magic of the Green Connect farm.
