Farm Gate Trail Itineraries
The farms of the Farm Gate Trail are genuine farming properties. You will get the opportunity to talk to the growers on farm or the wine maker/beer maker at the cellar door or bar. Many are iconic characters with great stories to tell so take the time to really soak up the atmosphere and discover some real gems. The Itineraries have been designed as day trips for people with similar interests but they can be tailored to suit your specific needs.
