Harvest Moon Carrot Festival 2026

Our much-loved Carrot Festival is back for its 7th year, and we’re ready to welcome the community once again to a fun, relaxed day out in Forth!

This free family event has become a local favourite, packed with plenty to keep everyone smiling. Little ones can dive into face painting, balloons, temporary carrot tattoos, sample bags and the always-popular carrot digging. Meanwhile, the big kids can enjoy guided factory tours, a classic sausage sizzle, tractors and farm machinery on display, or simply kick back on a hay bale with a coffee and a slice of carrot cake.

New this year, we’ll also have fresh vegetable packs for sale, so you can take a bit of the paddock home with you. And yes, the famous carrot ice-cream is back, and it’s still a crowd-pleaser for all ages!

Well-behaved furry friends are welcome too (just make sure they’re on a leash).

Harvest Moon has been growing and packing vegetables in Tasmania for over 45 years, and our free narrated tours of the washing, sorting and packaging facilities are always a highlight, but they do book out quickly, so arrive early to secure your spot.

Fresh air, good food, and a whole lot of carrot-powered fun. We can’t wait to see you there!

TOUR INFORMATION

The tours are between 45 minutes to 1 hour long and require you to wear comfortable, enclosed shoes. You will be walking for the duration of the tour and there will be stairs.

Please keep in mind when booking tickets that at times the tours can be noisy, and that in previous years some elderly family members have been known to tire quickly.

NO PRAMS, WALKERS or FURRY FRIENDS on the tours, sorry!
