How to Get to Permaforest FARM:
The location of the demonstration organic farm is at Barkers Vale, NSW adjacent to the Border Ranges National Park in New South Wales, Australia. The easiest way to get to there is to remember that it is just off the road that leads up to and through the national park. If you follow the signs to the park from the southern entrance (the Uki, Nimbin, Cawongla side) then you will come to Hidden Valley Rd. Turn left here- it is the second gate on the left (about 200m down). If you come from the Wiangaree or northern side you will drive all the way through the park (check to make sure road is open beforehand). About 2km past the park exit/entrance you will come to Hidden Valley Rd. Turn right, it is the second gate on the left. Note: Barkers Vale is just a name on the map, there is no actual town there.
