Join us for an exciting minibeast hunt this half-term! Explore the forest to find some of the creatures that crawl, buzz and wiggle.
All equipment will be provided for you to gently search, capture and view some minibeasts. There will be identification guides and sheets to learn about what we find.
This event is suitable for families, it is recommended for children aged 6-11 and will involve walking to a site and searching for minibeasts. This activity will last approximately 90 minutes.
Take a morning tour around Foxburrows Farm, discover the animals that live here, and help 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: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5cbef14440f0b649e50f9d9e/Farm_visits_avoiding_infection.pdf
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.
