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 residents of the land, the Barramadagal people, and how they have lived on Dharug Country for thousands of years. Then dress up and imagine what life was like 200 years ago when the Macarthur family built Elizabeth Farm.

Explore the garden, take part in a scavenger hunt and, help prepare food in the kitchen, and set the table in the formal dining room for dinner for the governor! After all that hard work, enjoy some delicious 19th-century refreshments in the garden.
