Armidale Region Holiday Attractions

Katrina George, Coordinator Armidale Visitor Information Centre has announced several holiday attractions for families in the Armidale region.

“We have two businesses that are running Farm Tour experiences for families, which would be a great experience during the school holidays,” Ms George said.

Wayward Jerseys Farm Day tours run from 9.00am – 12.00noon. Visitors can feed poddy piglets and calves as well as goats, horses and sheep. Visitors will have a farm walk and tour as well as the opportunity to feed hay to paddock cows. At the completion of the tour visitors will have an opportunity to purchase a picnic hamper or BBQ pack and enjoy a picnic lunch on the property.
