History Kids in the Garden at Elizabeth Farm

Get hands-on in the garden and learn about how gardens were used in the past!

Learn about the first people who lived upon this land, the Barramadagal people, then join us for hands-on activities where kids will discover what life was like for a servant in colonial times!

Bring your muscle power because there’s so much to do; we will be working in the garden, helping the cook with preparing a meal for the Macarthur’s and setting the table for a fine dinner.

Finish the program with a delicious historic barley water and biscuit. (Gluten free options will be provided)

Members get more: Members enjoy presale access and a 20% discount on tickets.

Please note: Adults are required to supervise participating children and tickets are needed for children and adults.
