Let the lambing begin

Few moments in the seasonal calendar mark the start of spring better than the arrival of the first lambs. Check out this little lovely who arrived yesterday, he's pictured with one of our team, Jacqui Tripp. Visitors are now welcome to come and watch lambing in our lambing barns as the flock expands throughout April. The farm has over 150 ewes expected to deliver in the coming weeks with twins and triplets usually a regular occurrence. Spending time in the lambing barns can be both interesting and educational for children and parents alike. There are also opportunities at this time of year for visitors to help bottle feed any orphaned or particularly hungry arrivals.
