Open days
Monkshill Farm holds Open Days for members of the public every year.
Admission is free (although donations will be gratefully received!).
Sat 29th May & Sun 30th May ( 10am - 4pm ) - NEW
Due to recent and prolonged bad weather our fields at the farm are very wet and not suitable to be used for parking for our usual Easter open days. It has been decided to delay our open days until Saturday 29th & Sunday 30th May.
This year we will also be donating half of our proceeds to Demelza Hospice Care for children. Information and leaflets will be released soon and we hope you will all be able to support the event and look forward to seeing you.
