Hill Farm

Farm Visit

Hay Festival 2011, 
Join local agronomist Jonathon Harrington and vet Barney Sampson as they explore farms in the local area. Expedition parties meet at 9am at the box office on the day of their excursion, to return at around 1pm.
On the day please wear suitable footwear and waterproof clothing in case of inclement weather.

Richard and Penny Chantler’s farm sits high on the side of the Black Mountains and produces New Zealand Romneys. See a demonstration of sheep dogs at work and sheep shearing, and handle newly-born lambs. Lamb rolls made from farm produce will be served at the end of a short farm walk.

With thanks to Richard and Penny Chantler of Hill Farm.
