For the last two years Lorna and I have been doing educational access tours of the farm. WTheree are doing this through The Country Stewardship scheme. Schools, clubs and familys are all welcome. Visits are totally free. We like parties of six or more although if you are only two people we can usually find someone else to join you. Visits are casual, we can walk around the farm chatting about crops and animals as we go.Small children find the baby animals fascinating, especially the lambs in the very early Spring. The ponds are also very popular, it is quite amazing what can be found by just dipping a fishing net into the water.There are newts frogs and toads. Dragonflies are magnificent swooping around like little aeroplanes.
If you would like to visit when you are in Cornwall you can telephone Lorna on 01726 870655. We look forward to seeung you one day.

I am planning a visit to the UK again probably around May next year - I would LOVE to have the opportunity to visit a farm.
I was raised on a mixed farm - sheep and milking cows - in New Zealand. Although we are not now farmers we own an orchard. We grow Kiwifruit and also have a few macadamia nut trees. Our Kiwifruit is exported to Japan and Europe.
I will keep a note of your phone number.
I can recommend this farm - we have enjoyed many great visits there and Lorna and Gill are brilliant guides.
