Weekly Farm Club for Young Animal Lovers Aged 5–8 Years in Kent

Animal care club     for 5-8 year olds.

Does your child love animals? Our Animal Care Club is the perfect introduction to life on the farm, giving young animal lovers the opportunity to get hands-on with our friendly animals in a fun, safe, and supportive environment.

Children will meet, feed, pet, and occasionally walk a variety of our animals while helping with the morning feed rounds. Every session is different, with plenty of opportunities to learn about caring for animals and build confidence around them.

This club is designed specifically for younger children, allowing them to enjoy all the fun of farm life without taking on more physically demanding tasks such as mucking out.

 Parents are requested to drop their children off for the session and not stay.
