Family Farm Day Activity Central Coast

A taste of country Australia in the heart of the Central Coast.

Mustard Seed Small Farm is a unique, family-friendly and interactive farm experience all within an easy drive from Sydney, Newcastle and the Central Coast.

At the farm, families can enjoy feeding and petting the animals, learn about growing food and even get your hands a little dirty planting and picking your own fresh produce for tonight’s dinner.

Interactive family farm workshops last 1.5 hrs and are strictly by appointment only.

Check out the Events page to see when our next family farm day is happening!

You and your family will get hands-on as you explore interdependent natural relationships, plant and animal needs, and the life cycles of the food crops we love. 

Your experience is filled with a combination of open-ended exploration and play, as well as farmer-guided activity stations. Here are some examples of the types of things you’ll do.

  • Explore seasonal farm phenomena while learning about the season’s crops

  • Engage with plants and farm animals in a safe, fun and educational way

  • Identify helpers and pests on a farm, learn about composting and see nutrient cycling in action at our compost station.

  • Eat farm-fresh harvests and share the love of fruits & veggies with your little ones.

  • Connect with nature in a safe, kid-friendly setting.

  • Enjoy the taste, smell, experience, and views Mustard Seed Small Farm has for you.

We work with parents and school groups to meet differing needs and interests across participant ages, learning challenges, interests, and physical abilities.

No Kids? No problems!

The joy of connecting to land, landscape and our food source is shared by all generations, and we welcome people of all ages and stages of life to our small farm.

We offer farm tours, u-pick veggie experiences & skills-based workshops. Get in touch to arrange a date.
