Driving onwards towards another farm (around 20k), we’ll watch some shearers at work and try our hand at throwing a fleece or rolling a wool bale, before heading off for for afternoon tea, then on a farm tour. Later in the afternoon we have the choice of pulling more Koonak traps or bait up single lines and catch them that way (way more fun .. if you’re up for the challenge!!)
As the sun sets, we arrive at the Farm Homestead, cook the Koonaks on an outdoor wood fire, then enjoy eating them …the traditional way of course, accompanied by a glass of champers or wine.
While we’re kicking back and relaxing, our Farm Hosts are cooking us a feast of lamb roast, damper and vegetables, all cooked outdoors in Camp Ovens. We’ll enjoy this dining experience under the stars … and may even be entertained with a little 'stockwhip' cracking!!
