School and Group Visits

Patchwork Farm offers children and adults a unique opportunity to learn in an outdoor environment, interact with animals and experience the multi-sensory stimulation that only a farm can offer.

Patchwork Farm is the ideal place to bring your group to learn about animals. It is a unique hands-on experience. We offer educational sessions for both mainstream and special schools, as well as other community groups.

We can accommodate groups of up to 15 children and young adults with a staffing ratio of up to 1:1. We can also offer your school/group free time on the farm with activities and worksheets for your young people to work through.
