Mark your calendars for Sunday, 16 March 12 noon – 5 pm as our Festival is back again this year!
The Festival, our biggest event of the year, is a much-loved celebration of community and late summer vibes, the most beautiful time of year to come together at the Farm.
There will be an abundance of delicious kai, with a variety of offerings from local chefs and vendors, including Ripe Deli, Fatima’s, a special Festival collab from A Lady Butcher and Daily Bread, The Lophie Project, as well as coffee, gelato, and a fully licenced bar.
Those looking to get hands-on can participate in workshops, peruse stalls, take home Kelmarna’s organic produce and seedlings, connect with like-minded individuals and join inspiring kōrero in the Talk Tent on what a new food system looks like.
Music enthusiasts are in for a treat, as the festival boasts an impressive lineup of live performances throughout the day, and families will find plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained, with a dedicated kid’s field with games, animal visits, farm tours, guess the pumpkin weight competitions, and face painting.
“Pay-what-you-can” tickets to the Festival will be available on Humanitix and at the gate on the day, with proceeds going back to the Farm to support our work.
Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to support a worthy cause while enjoying a day of music, food, and fun!
