I visited the farm shop. It's got a small amount of produce available according to time of year and the meats that are available. I bought some lamb sausages. There are chutneys, Jams too. You can get tea, coffee and hot chocolate, plus a few snacks available.
Was a lovely little farm. Nice and quiet with a short walk. A small river flows there and a bonfire / campfire place located in the woods. Overall a lovely experience with the kids.
Nice little community farm with goats, pigs, ducks, chickens and sheep. Entry and parking is free which is great. Really nice and accessible option for a quick trip with young kids.
Lovely place to visit and very friendly staff. We hired the community room for my son's birthday and it was brilliant for 20 kids. Loads of room for the kids to run around. The children enjoyed feeding the goats, seeing the other animals, exploring the woodland and playing in the soft play area. The community room & kitchen was very reasonably priced.
Unfortunately nothing like it's Web site. Allowing for the past wet weather, the living conditions of the animals was appalling. In particular the 3 sows that, were walking in mud upto their bellies, without dry sleeping stiles. Would not recommend a visit at all.
Wonderful city farm, free entry, range of animals, good for walks
We only stopped for a quick visit but had a fab time. Really nice people. Animals all looked really well looked after and healthy. Really lovely feel to the place, we can't wait to come back and explore some more and get a bit more involved!
Today we went on an exciting adventure to Lawrence Western Community Farm. There was a lovely lady called Anne who greeted us when we arrived, showed us around and told us where to buy the animal feed. At the farm, we fed lots of hungry animals. We bought goat and chicken feed from a little stall for 50p per bag. We had fun with the chickens following us as we fed them (but they were behind the fence!). We fed five greedy goats and their tongues were warm! You don’t have to buy feed, as they enjoyed eating grass from our hands too. Because it’s spring, the goats, pigs and sheep were having babies! Five adorable, black lambs had already been born when we visited – they were very cute curled up in the corner together! The pregnant goats were very large – we thought one of them must have been having twins! We hope to visit the farm again to see the baby goats. Well worth a visit!
It's not fully open yet but still a lovely place to go. The staff are friendly and the animals are clearly enjoying the extra attention again. The toilets are open and the hand washing facilities are spot on. We took our 6 month old son and he loved feeding the goats, even if they did have a sneaky nibble and lick of his toes. There are plenty of places to sit and the woodland walk is brilliant. All was accessible with a pushchair and the woodland walk had a raised wooden walkway.
