Features

Meet the Animals Workshops: The farm offers private two-hour Farmer Workshops suitable for adults, students, and children. Participants can enjoy all-day access to the farm alongside a two-hour learning session about farm animals. These workshops provide hands-on experience with pigs, sheep, cows, goats, and fowl. Seasonal additions include piglets, lambs, goat kids, and chicks, giving visitors a full, interactive experience with a variety of animals.
Adventure Play: Children and families can climb the massive bale climb and enjoy the adventure playground. The farm features large all-weather barns, providing space for play and exploration regardless of weather conditions. These areas combine physical activity, imaginative play, and opportunities to observe farm life up close, ensuring an engaging experience for all visitors.
Treasure Hunt: The Treasure Hunt game is designed to take place over the giant Bale Climb. Cards are hidden across the area for children to collect. Each child collects a number of cards corresponding to their age, so a six-year-old collects six cards. The activity encourages observation, problem-solving, and fun competition while exploring the farm environment.
Farmer Gow’s Firewood: Farmer Gow’s Firewood supplies naturally seasoned hardwood logs and kindling sourced from sustainably managed ancient woodlands within an hour’s drive of the farm. Firewood is processed on-site, and longer log lengths than the standard 8 inches can be cut to order. A new woodland, Henleaze Wood, has been established with the support of the Forestry Commission. Five acres of farmland have been planted with 28 indigenous hardwood species. The woodland lies within the Great Western Community Forest, supporting sustainability and biodiversity in the local area
