Federated Farmers Farm Day

Farm Day is a free, interactive, fun event giving children and their families a chance to see what goes on behind the farm gate.

Over the last three years more than 12,000 people have visited a farm in their area for a taste of New Zealand’s rural lifestyle.

This year each of the six participating provinces: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Manawatu, Rotorua and the Bay of Plenty, have organised an array of fun filled activities, ranging from sheep shearing, working dog demonstrations, pony rides, milking demonstrations and scenic farm walks.
