Olive Picking
Being custodians of olive trees that predate Christ, given our Mediterranean heritage, we have an emotional connection to the olive! To us olive harvest time is very much a social occasion when family and friends come together to help. For most of our guests participating in this rather unique activity is something they’ve never done before. It’s a great opportunity to do something together with family, spend a day out in the fresh air, enjoy the scents of nature and become part of the calmness you experience standing at the end of the day among hundreds of olive trees.
Truffle Hunting
Truffles are still a bit of a mystery! To experience one of the most exclusive food journeys is a must for foodies who are looking for a unique farm-to-plate experience. Each year we invite a selected number of people to participate in a private truffle-hunting journey. Accompanied by our trusted companion Banjo-the-truffle-hunting Kelpie, you will have the privilege of walking through our hand-planted oak forest, following the unique aroma of the truffle, to smell the earth as its aroma permeates its surroundings and then discover and dig one up yourself. The richness of the soil and the amazing aroma of the Black Truffle when it’s unearthed is like nothing you’ve ever experienced. The perfume is unforgettable!

About Us
On behalf of my family and I, we welcome you to Hidden Valley Farms!
Our farm story started over 25 years ago when we first laid eyes on this piece of land, well hidden from everyone’s view. What we saw was a 100-year-old farm that was tired and needed passion and devotion to bring it back to life. In its past life it was a thriving apple, pear and quince orchard with fruit taken by train to Sydney markets and by ship to England, often winning prizes there.
