Birdwood Farm Day
May
19
9:00 am09:00

Birdwood Farm Day

Farm Day is excited to partner with the National Motor Museum again in 2024 and as always, promises to have something for to suit every member of the family!

There will be all the usual crowd favourites - freshly baked damper and Devonshire tea, petting zoos, and a host of animal exhibits.

Milking cows, sheep shearing and working dog demonstrations along with log chopping, blacksmithing, restored engines plenty of other attractions to showcase the farming lifestyle and how farming has evolved over time.

Camel rides, bouncy castles, face painting and other amusement rides will be sure to put smiles on everyone’s faces.

As Farm Day is the sole fundraiser for Birdwood Primary School, the school’s representation must not be overlooked. The school will host a variety of retail stalls including our ever-popular Gardening, Sweet Treats and Port and Wine stalls. The students themselves are working hard on creating their own retail spaces in each year level too.

This really is a group effort with the whole school community being involved on some level, putting our best offerings forward for the public to enjoy!

As always, plenty of hot coffee and food choices to keep you full so you can stay and play the whole day long.

Children can use their imaginations while they 'build a city' with foam blocks or enjoy some quiet time colouring in, or challenge each other to giant board games like chess, Connect 4 and Jenga in our Kids Zone.

The Main Stage and Arena areas will host some great entertainers with live music, whip cracking and performances by our very own students.

Not sure how you will see it all? Purchase a Farm Day Trail Bag from the Info Stall by the entrance and it will lead you through the event, collecting as you go, ensuring no corner is left undiscovered.

Have we mentioned that each ticket also provides FREE access to the National Motor Museum?

Tickets on sale February 18th, don’t miss out!

All tickets must be pre-purchased via Try Booking.

Springton Open Gardens

Springton Open Gardens

Not just for the Springton folk; we would love to have the Mount Pleasant gardeners come along as well!

Open Gardens in Springton – Sunday 21 April

A number of the wonderful gardeners of Springton have again agreed to open their gardens for the day, to give you inspiration (or even just some hope in this long, dry summer) and an idea of what grows well around here. The gardens are a remarkable mix of native and cottage, rambling and structured, old and new(ish). If this summer has depressed you with too many plants dying at your place, walk around these gardens, talk to the gardeners and see what has (and what hasn’t) worked for them.

The Springton Hall on Graetz Terrace will open at 9.45am and for $10 (cash and card facilities available) get a wristband ‘ticket’, map and garden descriptions. Parking and public toilets alongside the Hall. Gardens open from 10am-4pm (Edenmae from 11am).

Visit the gardens in any order that takes your fancy, however two of the gardens are next door to one another on William Street, and there will be a coffee van outside! What a great way to start a Sunday stroll around Springton. Edenmae Cellar Door is also opening its garden, and offering a free glass of sparkling (white or red) or a free wine tasting to all ‘ticket’ holders. Come and enjoy the garden with a glass of something in hand.

Plants and seeds will also be for sale at the Hall; all things that have been grown in Springton and that do well here. Proceeds of the Open Garden Day and the plant sale support the Springton Progress Association.

Even if you don’t have time or inclination to visit inside any of the gardens, come and see the Hall and the plant sale. Voting forms for the Most Improved Garden competition will be available from the Hall as well (and can be returned to the Hall, Edenmae or the General Store).

Should be a great day.
