Harvest some summer produce for pizza making with Amy, our inhouse food system foodie!

We'll then prepare your pizza with your chosen toppings together, and Amy will cook it for you in our beautiful wood-fired oven. We will sit together to eat pizza in the sunshine for lunch and chat about what we harvested and how it grows!

What to Expect

You’ll get the chance to be our farmers for the day by getting outdoors, meeting our friendly farm animals and doing some hands-on farm craft and play!
You’ll learn about our regenerative farm and how we care for the land while producing nourishing produce for our community to enjoy. Your day on the farm will be facilitated by a Common Ground Project staff member.

What to Wear & Bring

Come dressed for any weather – rain, hail or shine! We suggest wearing waterproof and sun-smart clothing, including; a rain jacket, hat, sunscreen, closed-toe shoes, pants and comfortable clothing that you don’t mind getting dirty.
Please note: to protect yourself on the farm, you must wear closed-toed shoes. Flat boots or gumboots are suitable, especially when it rains.
Bringing own food - Food will be available to purchase at the cafe on Wednesday, however we recommend you bring your own food with you as we cannot guarantee dietary requirements or appropriate options on the day.

Behavioural Expectations

CGP’s school holiday program is an exciting day of interactions with plants, animals, staff and farm equipment. Please have a chat before your child’s visit about behavioural expectations to ensure they are aware of the importance of listening to instructions and showing respect to animals and each other. We will do everything we can to support your child and their needs, however, if there are circumstances where their behaviour becomes a concern, their emergency contact will be called to collect them.

If your child would like to attend our School Holiday Program but the cost of the ticket is a barrier, please use the code 'community' at checkout to receive 20% off the price.

Testimonials

"This program is absolutely fantastic! What a way to have the kids immersed in the great outdoors and keeping them engaged for a full day in nature. The day was packed with exciting activities and practical learning. My daughter would love to attend in future."

"I was nervous about going by myself but I had fun and played with the other kids, I learnt about mustard greens and mad a pot out of newspapers. I also got to feed the animals and collected 2 eggs. I definitely want to go back next holidays."

"The School Holiday Program ‘A Day on the Farm’ was a great experience for my son Hugo. He got to do something he wouldn’t normally do and learnt new information presented in a fun and interesting way. A lovely way to spend the day in this tranquil and interesting environment :)"
