Farm experience package.

Your day will commence with a welcome chat over a cuppa, we will be discussing the plan of the day and explaining the programme and a briefing on health and safety. This is a one-to-one bespoke experience and you will not be sharing it with anyone else.

 We start by visiting our coop where our rescued hens have been housed safely overnight. We will refuel the hen’s food, water and grit before collecting their eggs and cleaning the coop whilst they roam freely across the farm for the day. You will learn some interesting facts about our lovely ladies such as hens can remember up to 100 human faces!

  Following this we will visit our friendly resident cows who will be ready for their breakfast and a stroke or two! Cows really do enjoy being fussed over and they do have feelings e.g. they feel pain and fear just like us humans. We will tell you some interesting facts about cows. In Hindu religion the cow is sacred. These amazing animals have 360-degree vision!

We will go onto feed the female llamas with their young crias (depending on the time of year.) You will learn amazing info about the females, the length of their pregnancy and some unusual llama facts!

We will have a comfort break and a cuppa and then go onto meeting the rest of our fabulous llamas. We will introduce you to all of them and you will be amazed how wonderful these majestic animals are. You will learn a few facts about the llamas and their native origins and why they captivated our hearts with their magical aura.

You will learn how to brush your llama and about our handling techniques which is beneficial and calming to both animal and human.

We will halter the llamas for you, and you will have your own personal llama throughout this calming and picturesque trek. The walk is at a steady pace. Over wonderful /private farmland , views to the Malvern hills in the distance, through a fabulous woodland bursting with birdsong and foliage and the private lake on site. Finally, you get to hand feed the llamas and during the visit there will be ample of opportunities to take photos. Afterwards we will break for lunch.

You will learn about Folklore and interesting facts about pigs e.g. in Germany pigs are a symbol of good luck and a marzipan pig is often given on New Year’s Day and seen in confectionary.

Walking over to pig wood we will be passing other animals which live here on the farm, taking in the beauty of the countryside with the ancient woodland as the backdrop to our farm.

We will spend time with our rescued pigs in their woodland home. We will feed, brush and be giving them a much-loved belly rub! Pigs are very intelligent animals and love trying new things so we will create together a pig enrichment activity. Their sense of smell is second to none and the pigs will enjoy searching and finding new activities or treats that we have made for them during the enrichment.

Your day will be finished off with a fabulous Afternoon tea served by the lake in front of the summerhouse.

You will go home with a souvenir mug and a Llama Key ring made from our Briery Hill Llamas Fibre & Certificate of completing your Farm Experience 

We care for all our animals with kindness and compassion and aim to ensure your experience day is as enriching for you as it is for the animals you will meet.
