What Foods To Bring

IDEAS of FOOD:

You have the use of a 6 burner LPG GAS BBQ plus wok burner, if you have never used a BBQ don't be worried its no different than using a gas or electric stove at home, very easy and safe to use but outdoor use. If you are unsure, please ask management to show you.

Items and ideas that may help you decide on what to bring.

Breakfast:
Porridge or Cereal, (using long life milk or fresh milk) Toast or muffins, crumpets, croissants with jams, honey, Vegemite, peanut butter, Toast with cinnamon and sugar, Fresh Fruit compost (Yogurt & honey)

Bacon, Sausages, egg, baked beans, mushrooms, cheese, tomatoes. Ham and eggs on toast, Scrambled eggs, Egg in the window or French toast, Pancakes (bought item could be shaking pancake mix or premixed pancake powder), Raisin toast.

This is just a few ideas and many of these can be precut, premixed and placed into a tight lidded container before leaving your home, saving on prepping time at your camp site, saving time on cleaning up and people having to miss time with everyone on enjoying the farm.

Morning & Afternoon tea or (big groups Happy Hour): Cakes, Pikelets cooked on the BBQ with jam & can cream, Mixed Meat & Cheese Fruit Platter, Asst Dips & crackers, asst chips, Muesli bar.

Happy Hour explained: In large group bookings, all tents can share the cooking or prepping eg: Someone cooked the pikelets another preppers the cheese platters and so on, all get?s placed on one table like a buffet and everyone share, it is also very cost effective or each tent brings a plate of food or cake and all goes onto one table so everyone can do a bit of socializing.

Regarding any food items you may bring, please be aware snow may prevent you from leaving and your stay may be extended for a few extra days until snow melts for safety with driving, so please bring a few extra meals for each person. Food in tins, dried or cryovac meats are a good option. An extended stay due to large snow falls will incur no extra charge. You will have the offer to use the office phone to ring a family member, or your work to let them know you are snowed in and are unable to leave the accommodation until it is safe to travel. We make sure there is always this option so no one worries about your non return from you trip.

A Crate with lid for your nonperishables.
