We are one of only two farms left in London to take our animals out to other people's events. We have: Donkeys, Cows, Sheep, Goats, Pigs, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Chickens, Geese, Ferrets, Cats and dogs.
Thanks to the European Regional Development Fund and Tower Hamlets, major improvements are well under way at the farm. These include a new toilet block with baby changing facilities and tiny toilets for tiny tots. Clearing and fencing the wasteland to create new pastures and housing for animals.

School groups can visit the farm, look round and work on their own free of charge, or book a structured session with one of the farm teachers for a small fee. Schools can hire one of our incubators and hatch out either chicks or ducklings. We provide and deliver all the necessary equipment and pick it up afterwards.
There is a shop on site selling Light refreshments, home-produce, eggs, toys, gifts etc.

We also sell animal food and manure.


Some children's work:

"A  farmer  is looking at  a  goat.

The goat is standing on something."

By Jodie. (Year 2)

"The goat is standing on something because it is hungry."

By Wahida. (Year 2)
