All families and individuals are warmly invited to a day of hands-on learning and connection with the land at a little backyard farm in French’s Forest, in Sydney’s Northern Suburbs.

Frenchs Forest – Backyard Farm
Date: Sunday 22nd March 2026 Venue: Frenchs Forest, Sydney Northern Suburbs NSW (address will be provided) Time: 9am – 2pm (all ages welcome) Our next Biodynamic family workshop will be held in Frenchs Forest in Sydney’s northern suburbs at Clair Cisterne’s family home. Clair and her family have recently created ‘a little farm‘ in their modest suburban backyard. It is so impressive with multiple raised vegetable/flower beds, fruit trees, water features, chickens, and a healthy lawn too. We will be rejuvenating garden beds with freshly composted soil and planting them ‘companion plant style’ with winter crops. We will fertilise the grounds with biodynamic preparations. We will prepare the fruit, native trees, and all the bushes for the winter season. Come and be inspired by what Clair and her family have done to transform their relationship with each other and their outdoor space!
We will also enjoy a shared morning tea and lunch (bring food for yourself and/or to share, and your own utensils) A family-friendly workshop for all ages and interest levels. $130 per family (incl. GST) |
