Saturday Club How would you like to feed the cows, groom the goats, look out for eggs, ride a pony, muck out the pigs, clean the pony tack or cuddle a rabbit? There are always plenty of jobs to do down on the farm. Come and join our enthusiastic team of helpers and you can learn how to look after the farm animals. We meet up every other Saturday at 9.30am until mid-day. When you have booked in you can then choose which animal you would like to work with. There are ponies, goats, pigs, sheep, cows, rabbits and guinea pigs or the poultry, which include chickens, geese, ducks, turkeys and guinea fowl. We also have some parakeets and marmosets. Jobs will include feeding, grooming, mucking out pens and stables and re-bedding with clean straw, filling hay-racks and nets, cleaning and filling water buckets, egg collecting, pony riding and tack cleaning. We stop for a well- earned break at 10.45am when the farm provides a drink, packet of crisps and some biscuits. We then carry on working, finish off our jobs, clean and tidy up to finish for 12.00pm. If you want to join the Farm Club, please visit our download page for an application form. The club is extremely popular, so you may have to wait a while before we can offer you a place - please make contact with the farm to discuss your arrangements. If you are an adult and are interested in volunteering to help with the club, please contact the Farm Manager. |
