We cater for school and college visits, providing craft activities, farm walks and outdoor learning.

Grants are available for some visits, especially disadvantaged and disabled groups.

Our own wood fired PIZZA OVEN is available for making and baking your own Pizzas at special events and by request for parties. What better way to engage with food than by kneading dough , selecting your toppings and eating your pizza straight from the oven! The flour comes from Claybrooke Mill  just as our flour for all our scones for our Cream teas.

Our Panning for Gems and Fossils attraction makes a fun addition to any party. Children love finding the hidden treasure in their individual bags of dirt. Cost is £3 bag.

Our new farm trailer which is wheelchair friendly is also available for farm tours. Ideal for school visits and special events - fun for the whole family. We took over 800 on  farm  visits with tinies, toddlers, teenagers and the elderly enjoying a farm tour with Farmer Anthony!  Its  amazing how much  is learnt about farming and wildlife while enjoying a ride in the country air.

We supported many charities in 2011 including Samaritans, Send a Cow, Intercare  Chilean Earthquake appeal, LOROS  and  Macmillan Cancer Support.

Look out  this years events to see what's on in 2012  and charities supported. This year we will be marking the Queens Jubilee and the Olympics..  busy year ahead!!
