The entrance fee was a donation. Although it was raining the day we went there, the staff were willing to show us around. We fed the pigs with apples collected from the farm. At the end of the day the animals were marched into the designated shelters for the night. Fun to watch.

Excellent place for all ages to visit, check days and times before you visit. Priceless resource for volunteers to learn new skills, socialise with other people in the area and interact with animals. Great place to see farming in practice and to learn how food is grown. Currently there are chickens, turkey, sheep, donkeys, ducks, geese and pigs. Lovely orchard of various apple trees, allotment area and greenhouse. Café also available when open, and they sell produce sometimes, too.

Took my grandson Jonah to the farm today and he really enjoyed. He loved the play area and hobbit house. He would have stayed all day if he could
