December Working Weekend
- Date:
- Fri 11 – Sun 13 December
- Price:
- No charge
This is a chance to get to know the farm, turn your hand to old jobs and new, enjoy good company and good food too!
An opportunity to have bright ideas by the compost heap, happy talk in the hen house, and cool chat in the kitchen. Join us to prove that many hands make light work and that today’s stranger is tomorrow’s friend.
Our Working Weekends are run in the beautiful spirit of the WWOOF organisation: we feed and accommodate you, you work, with us.

Carols by Candlelight CANCELLED
Notwithstanding the end of lockdown 2, Swindon being in Tier 2, and Christmas gatherings permitted for more than 2, we are unable to hold this year’s Carols by Candlelight. It’s too popular, we get too close together, and we sing too much for current.
If we held the event in the usual way, the virus would have a field day, or at least a very good night!
So, best we can do is send you all season’s greetings, hope you keep well, and say look forward to meeting again next year.
- Date:
- Sat 12 December
- Time:
- 6pm – 7.30pm
- Price:
- Adult £5 • Child £2
An old-fashioned twenty-first century evening in the farmyard and the old cowshed, with all the right seasonal ingredients to eat, drink, see, hear, and sing! A roaring fire to keep us warm; surprise entertainment; and cartloads of carols for us all to sing, together.
This event raises money for the homeless in Swindon at Christmas and local charities. Price includes seasonal hot drink and mince pie.
Suitable for all ages. No need to book. Dress up warm and bring a torch.
