There’ll be plenty of opportunities to get closer to our animals too!

Meet our cows and goats during our morning talk and feeding sessions, where you can learn more about the animals and what they mean to our site.

Later in the day head on up to the top of the farm and meet our friendly pigs and new arrivals!
