Fonterra Open Gates, free family day out
Some Fonterra farmers are opening up their gates on Sunday 11 November, to show how they care for the environment and what they are doing to help protect it.
It’s also your chance to enjoy a fun family day out on the farm, where you can see where your milk comes from, chat to our farmers and sample our products, including our special edition Tip Top ice cream.
Book your free farm visit to secure your place and don't forget your gumboots! For more information visit Open Gates.
