This week till April 28th you can book feeding is at 9.00 a.m. 1.00 p.m. & 7.00 in the evening
We might add some more dates afterwards.
The rest of the farm is closed and there will be no tractor rides so it will be just the feeding .
The main Flock of Ewes and Lambs and herd of Cows and calves are out in the fields now.
We only have a few lambs and calves to feed. we are a working farm and believe they should be out in the fields with their mothers.
The Lambs are from ewes that do not have enough milk and we have been unable to wet foster. The calves are from a local dairy farm.
All the animals will go out onto the downs once they have been weaned.
For Schools / Groups email us email Coombes and we are doing a few School visits
There will also be some free visits for Special need groups and care homes again next year at lambing time. .
