Held every second year, the Field Day is about everything country – tractors, motorcycles, irrigation, farm equipment, animals and much more! As more consumers develop a craving for local fresh food, a batch of new small farms is finding innovative ways to meet the demand. This rural renaissance is producing more varieties of vegetables, raising goats, sheep and buffalo to produce new types of cheese, or finding creative methods of getting it to market, and this is what Malanda Small Farms Field Day successfully showcases. This year’s Small Farms Field Day will be held on Saturday 10 November at the Malanda Showgrounds. There are a variety of competitions that attract attention at each Field Day including cheese, preserves and bread making and—new in 2018—yoghurt making. A children’s competition will also be introduced involving fruit and vegetable creations.
