About Hastings Farm Gate Tour 2024
The annual Hastings Farm Gate Tour is a self-drive tour held over the June long weekend, celebrating the resourceful farmers and Custodians of the Greater Hastings, Port Macquarie and Camden Haven region, who farm and garden with nature and sustainability- with an eye on building our future.
Over three days, 19 properties will open their gates to you, giving you the opportunity to see what they are producing, learn about their regenerative practices and have some fun.
Some of our host farms have limited numbers and tour times can become full quickly. However, there are 9 locations that have no limits so there is plenty to see and do.
The following properties require bookings for tours and/or visits:
- Maria River Koala Tree Plantation - guided tour
- North Shore Koala Habitat Restoration - guided tour

Event Terms & Conditions:
1. The Hastings Farm Gate Tour is an all-weather event, should a particular host farm become inaccessible due to heavy rain they will endeavour to reschedule their tour. In the unlikely event of a catastrophic situation necessitating the cancellation of the entire Hastings farm Gate Tour no refund will be available. Your ticket fee will be kept as a credit towards a future tour or you can choose to allow these funds to remain with the Hastings Farm Gate Tour, (run by Earth Logic Incorporated a not for profit) to help run the 2025 event, as this event relies on grant and sponsorship money.
2. Photographs and video footage will be taken during the Hastings Farm Gate Tour and used for future reference and marketing. Please understand that you and your vehicle may be in some of these images.
3. The event doesn't have catering provided. Participants are encouraged to bring food, beverages and water bottle. Please take all rubbish with you to comply with our minimal waste management policy.
4. In late June 2024 you will be emailed a post event survey. This is a requirement of our funding and ensures the success of future Farm Gate tours.
