Our staff all came in fancy dress this weekend and it revealed some surprising hidden talents!

Gavin Crooks, a cook in our tea rooms is a fantastic musician and this weekend he showed us one of his latest ventures – the banjo! He entertained staff and members of the public with his super skills! I took a couple of videos to show you all. One is attached and the other is on this link!

Thanks to everyone that came in fancy dress this weekend, we hope you all had fun!

This photograph is just fantastic! It was taken by 8 year old Troy Warriner along with his Mum Tracey.

We love it so much we had to put it on our blog. I love the duck on the end looking up at the other ducks. It would definately make a good post card!

Tracey and Troy are regular visitors and annual pass holders. We reckon Troy might be a budding photographer!

Thank you so much for the picture guys, hope to see you down on the farm really soon!

Heartbleat…

Heartbleat…

This little goat kid really wears her heart on her sleeve…. well her back actually!

She was born last week and will soon be one of the extra cute baby goats that our visitors can bottle feed! She’s one of our most distinctive goats with the beautiful heart shape on the back! We thought she was so special we would get a picture for everyone to see.

She is a cross between an Anglo Nubian (hence the pig ears!) and a Golden Guernsey (hence the beautiful orange colour!). She is happily playing with her brothers and sisters in the Silver Barn along with lots of other newborns.

If anyone can think of a good name for this hearty little kid, please post them on our facebook page!

A Brown Owl, Some Love Birds and lots of Brownies…

01 July 2010

Last night some of our lovely local Brownies came for an evening visit! It was so much fun!

The weather was brill and we had a really nice walk around the paddocks and fed all the animals. (Including Darren the Goat of course!). We had some fun on the outdoor Play Area, including the Go-Karts. I was definitely the fastest! Then we popped into the Walk-in Aviary where the love-brids landed on our hands and our heads! In the picture you can see Brown Owl and Annie May, one of the Brownies!

I always love Evening Visits and last night’s was one of the best! I hope to see Brown Owl, Snowy Owl and the Brownies again soon!

13 April 2010

The daffodils are finally out, lambs are bouncing around the farm and now we have a lovely baby llama on our hands!

Her name is Lottie and we love her alotty! Our friend Dan from the Nottingham Evening Post loved her too when he came to take some pictures of our latest arrivals. The photoshoot was great fun with Lottie and newly named ‘Dan the Lamb’ running around the Go-Kart track with Farmer Becca! It was a late Birthday treat for Becca who has just turned 30! Happy Birthday Bec!

Lottie and Dan went straight back into the Silver Barn and had some well earned milk from their mummies! You can see them everyday along with lots more new borns!

Come and see us all soon!

Perfect Piglets Before Our Eyes!

Perfect Piglets Before Our Eyes!

25 March 2010

Last night we had a lovely visit from Farnsfield 1st Brownies. They came along for an evening visit and I was their guide. (You lucky Brownies! tongue wink )

We had lots of fun indoors and out but we had an extra special surprise when we went into the Silver Barn. One of our Saddleback pigs was giving birth. We watched in amazement as the babies were popping out!

Brown Owl, Judy Gees was just as excited;

“We had such a lovely time but watching the baby piglets being born before our eyes was just magical”.

I agree Judy! There are now 11 little piglets all happy and healthy. The Brownies decided to name the first piglet that was born. her name is Bella!

Come and see us over Easter and see all the new born piglets, lambs and goat kids yourself!
