Family Campout at Appleton Farms

Come to Appleton Farms in Ipswich for a fun night of camping on the farm!

Appleton Farm's first Summer Camp out was such a success we had to bring it back again! Families will be able to set up a tent in the Stone Paddock. Experience the fun of camping, while still having access to bathrooms and some great views of the farm.

Arrive at 7PM to set up your tent and get settled in. Families are encouraged to eat dinner beforehand, but more than welcome to bring a picnic or snacks for the evening! Just as it’s getting dark we’ll get the fire pit going to roast some marshmallows and maybe tell a story or two. Feeling adventurous? Join us for a night hike before settling in for the night.

In the morning we will provide coffee, juices and pastries before you help with the morning barnyard chores!

  • Please pre-register so we know how many tents/families to expect.
  • Please note we do not have room for any pop ups or trailers.
