About Farmer Gow's Activity Farm
Escape to the countryside for a day at Farmer Gows Activity Farm in Oxfordshire.
Our working farm offers a unique hands-on experience with the animals. Meet gentle cattle, chickens, ducks, honking geese, goats, piggies, sheep and waddling turkeys. Handle a fluffy baby chick, cuddle the lambs (seasonal), bottle feed goat kids (seasonal) and go egg collecting accompanied by our experienced, friendly staff.
We are thrilled to have installed a new custom-made, natural playground that will be heaps of fun and fully interactive for families in the years to come. Our natural playground is both engaging and beautifully designed.
You can also partake in a treasure hunt on the massive bale climb and tunnels or make sandcastles in the giant sandpiti!
Our farm shop stocks farm produce (meat and eggs) gifts, toys, local pottery and preserves.
Farmer Gow's Cafe serves smoothies, ice-creams, milkshakes, homemade classic sausage rolls, quiches, pasties, ham egg and chips. The menu also includes shorbread, double choc brownies and flapjacks.
We for many years now have catered for Birthday parties and school trips in the local area.
Farndon Christmas Market in November and December specialises in cut trees, potted trees, christmas wreaths, garlands, firewood, seasoned hardwood logs, decorations, charity cards, toys and gifts. Entry is free to the Christmas Market.
Hands-On Meet the Animals Experience
In small groups visitors can enjoy the 'hands-on', interactive Meet the Animals experiences where our friendly farm staff will let the animals out. You can also handle chicks and chickens, hand feed ewes and lambs (seasonal) and bottle feed goat kids (seasonal). You can order farm animal feed bags, for feeding along the Farm Trail, with your Day Tickets.
