Whether you're young or young at heart, you're sure to enjoy an outing to a goat farm tucked in the picturesque Tuki Tuki Valley where farms, orchards and vineyards rest in the shadow of the iconic Te Mata Peak. Your hosts will greet you when you arrive and lead you on a tour. The kids will thrill watching a traditional sheep shearing and an entertaining sheepdog demonstration, where a small flock of sheep is rounded up by a highly trained dog. But it's not all child's play. Learn how the farm supports sustainable, regenerative farming practices intended to protect the environment and expand the Earth's natural resource base. After bidding farewell, continue along the Tukituki River to a café for a wholesome lunch set among the picturesque beachfront views that extend out to Cape Kidnappers, where rustic countryside meets the sea surrounded by native trees and birdlife.
