Join John Girling for ‘Foxton and Flax’, an experience which includes seeing the flax stripping machinery in operation, and an overview of the flax industry. Well worth a visit, as there have been exciting new additions over the past months! The museum’s photographic display shows the production of carpets and woolpacks from flax.
9.30 - 10.30am and 11.00am - 12.00pm
Pair your museum visit with a walk along the Piriharakeke Walkway. Enjoy views of the Manawatū River loop and farmland while learning about the history of the area from historic signs and photographs along the walk.
