Education at Deen City Farm

The opportunities for learning at Deen City Farm are numerous and cover all age ranges.  We offer incubator hire to schools & nurseries, we host work experience placements; we run a Farm Club after school; we work on horticultural projects with local schools; people of all ages can experience horse riding*; we support volunteer placements so that people can build up friendships and enjoy the time they give to the Community.

One of our most popular educational activities is a Farm Tour where a group (of usually no more than 15) are told about the animals while they go around the Farm. Often, the group feed some of the animals.  It shows that the Farm appeals to all ages in that our typical audience is those aged 4 to 7 but we very pleased to have conducted a successful tour for a far more mature group as part of the Celebrating Age Festival 2006!
