Our guests are always amazed by Bruce’s passion for agriculture and his explanation of modern-day sustainable and technologically advanced farming and grazing practices.
Farming life is always busy and Bruce’s confirmed tours are usually for ten or more guests. – For smaller groups tours will be subject to the farming schedule on that day.
– Alternatively, we can give you a mud map for a self-guided tour.
– Guests are not able to ‘help’ on the farm but are welcome to view from a distance.
Detailed, and helpful information is on our website. Julie is delighted to assist with suggestions for planning your special getaway.
