  • There will be tours around the farm to see animals, crops and wildflowers
  • Adam will demonstrate the milling of our flour with bread samples to taste and recipes to discuss.
  • Ellen will be showing off the luxuriant sheepskins and our range of beautiful natural coloured knitting wools from our own sheep, and talking knitting.
