  (Changed Transport Details) Leader: Kevin Cliffe. Have you heard of brush farm? Lucky for us, Brush Farm House opens on Fridays and Saturdays. Brush Farm is a heritage-listed former farm, residence and vineyard and now tourist attraction, community facility, exhibition venue and meeting venue.
Brush Farm House's variety of uses over the years provides an unbroken passage to the past through pastoral experimentation, stately home of nationally and internationally known identities, reformatory etc., these uses follow a timeline from early settlement, colonial expansion, colonial representation through parliament and national independence, through Federation, to today.
Its unique association with the European settlement of Australia and its early pioneers identifies the property as one of significance to the nation.
We start walking from East Denistone, explore Denistone Park, Darvall Park where you will find Sydney's best blue gums, Brush Farm Park and Brush Farm House (opens at 1:30 pm) before heading to Eastwood for afternoon tea. Limit:15. T: From: 8 Dec 2023, 10:00AM
