Welcome to Poppy’s Farm!
"My aim is to create a relaxing space where adults and children can enjoy an adventure into wildlife and nature.
In keeping with St Peters family-values, the farm is named after my daughter Poppy, and the allotment, after my son, Oliver.
I am passionate about doing my bit for the environment and the local community. I want to ensure we do what we can to protect our planet for future generations, which is why I have created Poppy’s Farm.
As well as enjoying the special spaces we have designed, I hope that you will learn a bit about nature and be inspired to introduce some wildlife habitats to your own garden."
- William Blake, Managing Director
Our Feeding Times are at 12:00pm every day, starting with our pigs first!
