Pick up a coffee and a pastry at The Alder Grove. It is just a one-minute walk from the farm and opens at 9 AM, giving you plenty of time to grab a bite before the light changes.
19:42
Head to The Super Strawberry. The farm is on the left hand side of the New England Highway, two kilometres south of Glen Innes. Settle in with your treat and find a spot where you can see the western horizon.
19:57
Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The golden light starts about 19:23 and the sun dips below the horizon at 19:57. Enjoy the strawberry treats while the sky shifts colour.
20:27
Walk back to The Alder Grove to browse the Celtic art and local woodwork while the evening cools down. The gift shop stays open until 5 PM, so you can pick up a small souvenir before it closes.
Local tip
The farm is open until 5 PM, but the sunset is the main event. Check the route if you are using public transport, as the farm is located slightly off the main highway.
