Penobscot Farm

Penobscot Farm is an organic, bio-dynamic farm designed along permaculture principles in Watervale, Ngadjuri Country, in the heart of the Clare Valley Wine Region.

We are regenerative farmers looking to restore life in our soils, and grow flavoursome, nutritious food.

The one-bedroom Penobscot Farm Cottage is ideal for intimate farm stays.

Penobscot Farm supplies two venues:
– The Watervale Hotel with fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves, berries, and nuts that are enhanced and enriched by South Australian 2022 Chef of the Year Nicola Palmer and her team of international chefs. Penobscot Farm is the hero behind the award-winning Watervale Hotel’s menus.
– The Watervale General Store with fresh and preserved produce prepared in the Watervale Hotel kitchen. The produce also finds its way into fresh juices and pastries.

Penobscot Farm offers the Farm Tour at 4pm each day followed by a Six Course Degustation at the Watervale Hotel matched to Clare Valley wine or Mocktails. The mocktails feature Penobscot Farm juices, syrups and garnishes.

Events are operated at Penobscot Farm from time to time, such as ‘Retrospective Evolution – looking back for inspiration to move forward’ in May, 2023.

The Shearing Shed can be utilised for wedding receptions and other events.
