About the Experience

The Davis Farm is a not-for-profit community farm on the traditional lands of the Birpai people. We offer a safe, inclusive space where visitors can slow down, connect with nature, and enjoy gentle, meaningful time with our friendly animals.

Our senior group visits are designed to be unhurried, supportive, and flexible. Whether your group loves animals, gardens, or simply being outdoors — we tailor every visit to suit your pace and needs.

Accessibility note
