Great breakfast and lunch plus fresh produce for sale. The Agrestic Grocer opened in August of 2013 & quickly established itself as a strong force behind the local food movement & an exciting addition to the Orange food story. The added characters of Badlands Brewery & The Second Mouse Cheese Company onsite, brought fantastic products right to the door step. The ‘produce box’ service continued to grow, while the grocer was able to provide the same fantastic produce, along with an interesting mix of local & wholefood grocery 7 days a week.

During the warmer months, Lake Canobolas is a great place for fishing, swimming, canoeing and sailing. A sandy beach on the western shoreline near the wall of the dam provides a fun place for kids to swim and play in the sand. Pontoons anchored to the bed of the lake provide an attraction for teenagers to swim. Please be mindful that the water in the lake has varying temperatures and swimmers can find themselves in deep very cold sections.
There are also picnic tables and a playground for the kids.
