Join us for the most anticipated Junior Farmer events of the year... Chickens & Eggs.
The 45 minute sessions during the Easter holidays will combine hands-on outdoor fun with a little learning:
- Discover our different breeds, their life-cycle and how we look after them.
- Visit the coop to feed the birds and gather a freshly-laid egg from the hen house.
- Get creative and decorate an egg to take home.
Suitable for children aged 3-11, the sessions cost £5.50 per child. It's free for accompanying adults and non-participating infants (18 months and under). Advanced bookings are essential and spaces are limited. To book, please click on your choice of date below:

Some extra details...
- We're offering two flavours of the sessions: one for pre-school children (aged 3 to 5) and one for primary school children (aged 5 to 11). We won't strictly enforce these age restrictions so don't worry if you're bringing children with a range of ages - book on to the same session.
- Sessions will be held in the polytunnel which is sheltered but unheated, and outside in the hen run, which is muddy. Please wrap up warm and wear wellies.
- Please arrive at least 10 minutes before your session starts to register as the supervising adult.
- Our Easter Egg Hunt will be on during this period and does not require advanced booking. We also have a cafe, farm shop and plant centre, so there's plenty to do before or after your Junior Farmer session.
