Wellies are most likely the best footwear to bring and have a change of footwear to wear on your journey home.  Old trainers or hiking boots are also ideal.

Being a farm, there is a possibility for mud, so wear clothes that you don’t mind getting a bit dirty.

Bring waterproof jacket and trousers, if you don’t need them they can always stay in the car. but if the wearer turns wetter than expected, you will be delighted you packed them!

As this is a working farm they may be moving machinery. We ask our visitors to stay at the car parking area and a member of the team will collect you at the start of your event.

Please be mindful of other visitors arriving in vehicles, children should not be left to wonder unattended.
