About Hastings Farm Gate Tour
The annual Hastings Farm Gate Tour is a self-drive tour held over the June Long Weekend, celebrating the resourceful Farmers and Land Custodians of the Greater Port Macquarie-Camden Haven-Hastings region who farm with nature, sustainability- with an eye on building our future.
For three days, seventeen farms 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 have tour times that are full, however, there are 10 locations that have no limits so there is plenty to see and do.
