I thought I'd let you all know about the upcoming strawberry season on the Sunshine Coast in Qld.
Between May and October each year, Gowinta Farms employs between 300 - 350 seasonal workers to pick and pack strawberries. We love the grey nomad crew so much we built a 56 site caravan park especially for those workers who work and travel.
This seasons strawberry runners are in the ground and we're expecting a start to the season in mid May. So if you're looking to escape the southern chill for holidays or work and play, consider visiting us at Gowinta Farms, the Sunshine Coast's largest strawberry farm.

Where exactly is the strawbery farm? Have been into the website and it says about 5 ks away from Australia Zoo. Is it north, south, east or west. I know the area well and can't place it. Is it closer to Landsborough, Mooloolabah or am I thinking of the wrong way? Will make it easier to find if I get through that way.
