WELLY WEDNESDAYS

Every Wednesday Throughout the School Holidays
Welly Wednesdays is our tour of the farm and takes place every Wednesday throughout the school holidays, between 2pm and 4pm.
The tour starts with an introduction to our farm and all the changes we’ve made over the last 20 years. Lots has happened at Briddlesford over the last two decades, from turning the old milking parlour into the shop, and transforming what was the winter accommodation for our cattle into Bluebells Cafe.

The tour takes us to the baby calves, Heritage Centre and hay barn, where children (and some adults), get the chance to sit in the tractors.

You will hear how proud we are to be rearing our animals and selling them all through our shop and café. In dry weather, we visit the pregnant mums before looking at the silage pits to look and smell the different varieties of silage.

We talk about the cows’ diets and visit the slurry pit – what goes in must come out! After more time feeding and petting a range of calves, we’ll head to the milking parlour for a close up experience of the whole milking process and a chance to chat to the herdsman.

There’s lots of opportunities to ask questions, before we end the tour with welly and hand washing, and a drink of delicious Briddlesford milk.

Adults: £8.50 children 3 years and over £4.25, this includes a cup of milk, activity books and stickers.

Just Turn Up at 1400 and We'll set off..
