When it comes to creating plenty of exciting fun, with 21 grandchildren, Bargara Berries’ Debbie and Michael Meiers have it down to a fine art.
They showcased that last year, holding a celebration last year for a whopping 21 years of growing strawberries, while also raising money for their grandson Arley who was born with a rare neurological brain disorder and needs medical grade equipment to help make his life a bit easier in his school environment.
This year, their Sunday Fun Day on Sunday 21 July from 11am to 3pm is a wonderful opportunity to raise money for Jeans for Genes Day and the incredible work of the Children’s Medical Research Institute.
Debbie said they were excited to share this Sunday Fun Day with the community as it was a day for the families.
“We see ourselves with our grandchildren how much they love coming to the farm and spending time outside and the sounds of laughter and fun is one of my greatest pleasures in life,” she said.
“We are grateful for the Bundaberg North Lions Club who are celebrating their 50th anniversary this year and we so integral to helping to raise money for Arley last year to be cooking the barbecue.
Add to that we will have the excitement of a jumping castle so children can use up all that energy, as well as Old McDonalds Farm and Frivolous Face Painting, both which are hugely popular.”
Entertainment will be provided by The Rhubarb Tarts, these zany, talented musicians have become one of the Wide Bay’s most popular bands since they got together three years ago, and never fail to deliver high energy on stage with a great array of cover songs.
A visit to Bargara Berries wouldn’t be complete without strawberries, strawberries and more strawberries and they are even also available in gelato, jams and sauces with Hit’n’Run Barista on hand with delicious coffee and tea.
“We really want to just have a low stress, easy, fun afternoon, with the adults enjoying the music, and the kids enjoying their time.
“This is also an opportunity for everyone to visit the farm and support Genes for Jeans.”
Bargara Berries is located at 104 Hoods Road Meadowvale.
