Farmstay Guests are the Best!

Submitted on Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 08:31

What a great school holidays with some very special new and repeat guests coming to stay with us on the farm. From painting native bee hives, to caring for the animals, through to some very enthusiastic kids who couldn't be stopped by mud or torrential rain! Here are some pics of some of the great gang who rolled up their sleeves to help sort out the jigsaw puzzle of all the timber for the new farmgate shop deck. And they turned muddy mountains into molehills too...in between caring for new baby lamb Solo, pony rides, walking the goats, collecting eggs, camp-firing and more!

Soda the Pony...our newest farmstay guest at Honeycomb Valley Farm

Submitted on Tuesday, March 13, 2012 - 07:36

Meet the gorgeous Soda, our newest member of the family at Honeycomb Valley Farm. Soda is a 12 year old pony and soooo sweet and gorgeous! He's just perfect for giving hand-led pony rides for the kids, and he loves being brushed and fussed over. Horses can teach us so much about ourselves and the magnificence and therapeutic qualities of nature, and Soda is already doing just that. He's one special pony.

Minnie Ho Ho - Meet our Christmas Day farmstay calf!

Submitted on Thursday, January 5, 2012 - 09:04

What a great gift on Christmas Day to be greeted by our latest gorgeous grass cutter and manure provider - Miss Minnie Ho Ho. She's a miniature galloway calf - and gorgeous to boot! Mum Fun Factory and dad Mickey looked ever the proud parents...though Mickey was a bit more interested in the congratulatory biscuit of hay than the baby!

Minnie Ho Ho is a beautiful example of the miniature galloway breed and we're sure she'll become a farmstay favourite!

3 girls and a farmstay

Submitted on Friday, December 9, 2011 - 05:03

Here are some pics from 10 days in the life of Honeycomb Valley Farm, as seen through the eyes of Mira, Winja and Mirjam. These wonderful wwoofers (willing workers on organic farms) from Austria and France gave us lots of laughs and lots of memories....and when you see the other post we're about to do - you'll see they gave us so much more, pulling out all stops to help us create the cottage garden section of the ethnobotanical garden and Native Australian Bee sanctuary!

Submitted on Monday, September 26, 2011 - 10:21

One of the great things about having Helpxers/Wwoofers visit our farmstay, is not just that we get to meet great people and have some extra help which makes our paying guests' experience even better, but the other great thing is that they always have their camera with them and they take great pics!
