Organiser Rose Atherton said it was an opportunity for women to come together in a relaxed atmosphere, to meet and talk about their challenges and accomplishments.
Conversation topics among the women present ranged from university courses and workshops to employee management, sponsoring overseas workers and the weather.
The outing was organised through GippsDairy’s women in dairy group.
Their next gathering is the end of year Ladies Lunch, on November 28. Booking details are on the GippsDairy Facebook site.
