Autumn (Part 2 - PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION) Farm Experience

If you or your partner are pregnant, please see advice on the NHS website relating to contact with farm animals during pregnancy.

The experience lasts 1.5-2 hrs, please do not arrive more than 10 minutes before the session start time. 

Autumn is the beginning of our farming year, as Easter 2027 is early next year THE EWES WILL HAVE ALREADY BEEN SELECTED during the Autumn part 1 sessions. The ram will be in with the ewes and we will be checking to see which ewes have raddle on their rump. The raddle marker (blue paint) will give us an approximate date of lambing so you can try and time any future visit with expected lambing day. 

We spend time with the goats feeding and brushing and we will have our last hatch until spring of chicks.  Our hens will, as always, enjoy being fed corn and although the number of eggs may have dropped off (eggs are seasonal after all!) we will be collecting and packing what we find, it is possible there will ba a limit on how many you can buy - we will have to wait and see!

The weather in Autumn can be 'fresh' so we recommend waterproofs as SESSIONS WILL GO AHEAD IN WET WEATHER, although rain with strong to gale force winds usually means a reschedule as that combo is just too tough for even us!
