Hi Everyone,

I am helping organise a Community day in Bungendore for 15th May.

We are now looking for a Mobile Farmyard/Petting Zoo to come out.... just wondering if anyone knows of any around the area? we are struggling to find them on 'google'.

Thanks in advance

There was a petting paddock at the Sutton Fair last weekend which was great. My neighbour organised this and a lot of the fair so I'll PM you her details. I know she said it was expensive, but it was really good. I'll send you some pics if you like.

What is the fair on the 15th?

We saw the one at Floriade - I think it was from Bowral which isn't too far from Lake George (I'm thinking, anyway - as it's also in the Southern Highlands!):

Bowral Farmyard Friends - Mobile Farmyard ... we come to you!Phone: 0402 003 097

The Bowral Mobile Farmyard has been in operation for 10 years. We realised that many children from the major cities rarely saw baby farm animals and almost never got to hold and feed them. So we come to you for the ulitmate birthday party experience!
