This year we have moved our event site, putting you at the heart of the farm. Here’s what you can expect…

This walking tour takes you around Nocton Wood Yard. From the huge grain stores to the potato store, find out about the crops we grow, how they’re stored and what happens next.
Nocton Wood self-guided tour
Nocton Wood is an ancient woodland packed with a range of flora and fauna. Choose the 3km or 5km route and enjoy the beautiful, peaceful surroundings.
Pick up an activity pack to keep the little ones engaged.
If you would like a longer walk, you can explore the countryside that surrounds our farms with one of our tailored routes. Pick up a map from the information tent on the day.
Children’s activities
A pre-school discovery zone teaches young children about the farm as they play, while our educational activity area offers something for all ages.
Bring a picnic blanket and chairs to sit back and enjoy the live music. There’s plenty of local food and drink on offer too.
