About
Award-winning family-run farm near Blackwater village where kids can handle rabbits and chicks, milk a model cow, ride pedal tractors, and even bring the dog along for its own agility playground.
Things to Do
The Garden Café
Lunch served 12–4pm: filled paninis, smash burgers, sourdough pizzas, sharing baskets, homemade cakes, and Greenbean barista coffee. Dietary requirements catered for. A function room is available for gatherings.
Meet & Handle the Animals
Get up close with bunnies, chicks, Fallabella and Shetland ponies, turkeys, and larger farm animals. Join organised sessions throughout the day to handle small animals, collect eggs, or bottle-feed lambs and goats.
Milk Jessie the Model Cow
Kids love 'milking' Jessie, the farm's life-size model dairy cow — a hands-on introduction to where milk comes from, without the kick.
Pedal Go-Karts & Tractor Rides
Race around the pedal go-kart track or take a spin on the indoor and outdoor tractor tracks. Toy tractors and ride-ons keep younger children busy.
Indoor Adventure Playground & Zip Line
Burn off energy in the indoor adventure playground, tackle the space-net climbing frame, soar on the zip line, or explore the 'Play Town'. All play areas have no time limits.
