Visit
We welcome visitors to the farm.
The unfenced areas are open to the public at all times.
The food production areas are behind deer fencing and are open to the public during volunteer and workshop sessions, farm open days and community events. The fenced area on the north side of the farm is a wildlife protection zone and we ask visitors not to go into those fields.
We want the farm to be as accessible as possible and love to see visitors enjoying the space we are creating. You are free to come see what we’re up to, and observe the plants and animals flourishing as the farm develops.

Accessibility
Accessibility is important to us and a key objective is to develop some designated paths on the site that are suitable for wheelchair users and those with limited mobility.
It is level access from the Toby Carvery car park onto a rough compacted stone path, which leads to the Community Garden & Allotments gate.
The rest of the site is rougher terrain and can get muddy. For walkers, we recommend wearing suitable footwear and taking care, especially in wet weather conditions.
Dog Walkers
We welcome these four legged visitors but please be mindful of other users and inhabitants of the farm. We kindly ask that people with dogs stay out of the north and middle fenced fields as these are important spaces for endangered ground nesting birds and other wildlife.
And please remember to bag and bin your dog poo!
Groups & Educational Visits
We love to share our experiences and journey with groups who are interested in what is happening at the farm or are doing similar or associated work. If you’d like to arrange a group/school visit then please get in touch via the contact form.
