This family dairy farm is leading the way in Australia for innovation and production of dairy goods. The farm and factory tour is a wonderful way to see the farm in action, pat the beautiful Guernsey cows and finish with a coffee and scone piled high with delicious Maleny Dairy cream yummy.

From car and agricultural shows to markets and camping by the Obi-Obi Creek this is the heart beat of Maleny. Worth a walk this way into town along the creek boardwalk to bird and Platypus watch.
