Sample itinerary

Please drive to Mill One – Building C at the front entrance. Once onsite, please contact our office using the intercom and someone will come to pick you up and bring you to our space

We’ll talk you through the history of the building and the history of GeoGreens and how the two came together to forge our unique farm. We’ll also run through some of the boring stuff as the farm is an operational food production site, so we require everyone who visits to follow our safety and sanitation guidelines.

We hit the changing rooms where we whip on hair nets, and important white lab coats. We’ll also show you how to wash your hands.

Once done, you’ll hear about how we sow our seeds, learn what substrate we use & discover how we trick our seeds into thinking they’re in soil to get them to germinate.

When we make our way into the farm, you’ll get a chance to sample our crops while your guide rattles on about our lighting , irrigation and harvesting processes. Don’t worry though, there’ll be plenty of time to take pictures of our farm all dressed up in neon pink lighting.

We’ll make sure that you all get a salad to take home or a punnet of your favourite crop.

Concluding the tour we will help you to remove all of the protective geared supplied and guide you back to the front entry
