Bustling urban farm with a lively activities programme. A green oasis in the big city, it offers volunteering and corporate challenges, such as animal handling and goat milking. Visitors will meet a wide range of animals and learn to handle them and children can discover where milk and eggs actually come from. The farm offers workshops on dairying, healthy eating and sustainability and schools can learn about animal welfare. The farm is a purpose built demonstration site for community horticulture and its polytunnels play host to Asian vegetables, raised beds and container planters growing more traditional varieties.
Accessibility
The entrance road has an 'ecogrid', meaning it is wheelchair friendly. The farm also has disabled access toilets and wide walkways to view animals.
