Getting here

The Green Connect Farm is located at 6 Anna Avenue, Warrawong. There is a small sign at the end of the driveway, but be aware that it can be hard to find! We recommend using a GPS if you have one. Please park on the street and walk in through the farm gate.

Please arrive 10 minutes early

Your workshop will take place in our education hub. When you arrive, walk through the bamboo fence on the right of the driveway, and come into the education hub from the right of the building. We will invite you to sign in, get settled and grab a cup of tea/coffee before we get started.

Weather notice

Rain or shine, the Green Connect farm is a wonderful place to visit. Please make sure to come prepared for the weather. We don't cancel events in wet weather unless there is a dangerous storm. Getting wet or muddy is all part of the fun!
