This one’s for the animal lovers.
Livona Farm in Moorooduc offers farm based support services which focus on the therapeutic and restorative role animals play in our social and emotional wellbeing.
With donkeys, goats, sheep, pigs and chickens on site, visitors are treated to an open ended style of encounter that centres around gentle and meaningful connection with animals. Whether that means engaging in hands-on farm activities or simply sharing space with the beautiful (and hairy!) souls - it is entirely up to you!
Enter the field of donkeys (who absolutely LOVE a groom) or cosy up with the goats and sheep. Be charmed by the three (not so little) pigs - Pearl, Barry and Bruno who can be found setting up camp in their enclosure or socialising with the goats through the fence.
The moment you drive through the gates of Livona you can tell the place has been built with love. With a background in nursing and qualifications in education support, Leigh the owner has created a space whose sole purpose is to positively contribute to the lives of all people and animals involved. Livona is a very special experience that will stick with children (and grownups) for a long time to come.
Sessions run from 30 minutes to an hour and must be booked through their website. Designed for groups of 1 - 4 people, Livona caters for children approximately 6 years of age and up (though under 10s must be accompanied by an adult at all times).
Mamma’s special mentions:
Head just a few minutes down the road and you will find Devilbend Farm Beer Co. which not only offers delicious food and beer but a great little outdoor play area for the kids!
