Come and create a unique piece of art as a family! Explore the farm, get some inspiration then get stuck in. All materials provided
Wednesday 28th October: Make, bake and eat! 1-3pm
Come and have a go at making edible bread sculptures and tasty pumpkin soup. All materials provided.
About the farm:
Established in 1977, Vauxhall City Farm is a free of charge charity urban farm located in a deprived inner city area and is open to the public 5 days a week. The site covers ¾ acre and creatively houses a range of farm animals ranging from horses and sheep to chickens and guinea pigs. At one end of the farm is our ecology garden complete with educational composting and recycling area, bug house and wildlife pond. At the opposite end of the site is our community garden and allotments for local people. The community garden has also recently been transformed to include easily accessible growing areas and a wonderful new building constructed entirely of recycled and reclaimed materials.
