What we do

The Farmyard is at the centre of the Farm, and home to many much loved animals including great characters such as Bayleaf the Donkey & Bentley the Goat.

Volunteers take part in the animals daily care and have the opportunity to learn about their needs.

Co-ordinated by two members of staff, the animals are a learning resource for all who use the farm.

We aim:

  • To manage the farmyard demonstrating best practice in animal welfare
  • To promote animal care and welfare
  • To provide information to explore farming practices past, present, and future
  • To provide training in animal care and to signpost to further resources
  • To provide access to animals both on the Farm and by taking animals into the community
