Join the Forest Education Ranger for a morning tour around Foxburrows Farm. Discover the animals that live here, and help our Farm Rangers to give some of them their breakfast.
Starting before the Farm is open to the public, this tour will teach you about the animals that we have on the farm, including how some can help to manage the forest. There will also be the opportunity to feed some animals (please note that we cannot guarantee feeding specific animals)
The tour will last approximately 50 minutes. The tour will start promptly at 9am
Visiting a farm is an enjoyable experience, but does carries a small risk of catching infection from animals or the environment, Particularly for those who are young, elderly, immunocompromised or pregnant. Health and safety information will be given at the start, and a link is provided here for more information: vrcl.uk/healthandsafety
As it is difficult to stop very young children putting their hands in their mouths after touching the animals, we advise that children under 3 years old do not attend the farm tour.
Join us for some spring themed crafts at Hainault Forest this half-term. Make your own colourful flowers, and create a cardboard insect to take home with you.

We may take a short walk to collect some natural materials to use in our crafts so please wear trainers or sturdy shoes.
This event is suitable for children aged 5-11. An adult must accompany the child for the duration of the session.
