Visit Us
When visiting the farm it is important to understand a few of our charitable objectives. Amelia Trust is a working farm which means that the livestock will often be found in different locations depending on the time of year. It may not be possible for you to get close to some animals as we are held responsible by working farm legislation. You will have access to many areas of the farm including the many wonderful woodland walks so please follow the countryside code and take any litter home with you.
The farms main function is to support and educate vulnerable and disadvantaged young people. Our young people are involved in all areas of the agricultural setting so you will often see them around site. Our Young Person Assistants have achieved a level of knowledge in which allows them to work independently but they are still learning so please be patient with them after all you were a student once.
As a small charity we employ 12 members of staff, however the continuing service to the public and the up keep of the site requires so much more and we just couldn’t keep doing what we do with out our loyal band of volunteers. We do not charge individual members of the public visiting or parking at the farm; however we do not receive any core funding so we encourage all visitors to put a donation in the boxes on site to help us manage and maintain the facilities.
A small charge is made for groups of more than 12 people. Groups are required to book in advance (please see visit us)
Thank you for your interest in Amelia Trust Farm and we hope you enjoy your visit.
