Dear all
We have a few places left on our farm walk at Strickley Farm, Strickley, Old
Hutton, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8 0LU.
This farm walk will be held
Tuesday 30 July from 10am – 1pm.
Farm Background: Strickley is an organic dairy farm which
has been in the Robinson family for 5 generations. We have a pedigree herd of
100 Dairy Shorthorns plus followers. We have always taken a keen interest in
wildlife and conservation and the farm has an ancient oak woodland and a 2 acre
wildlife pond, plus many miles of hedgerows. We also host farm visits which are
run by my wife Michelle who is a primary school teacher. The school visits are
focused on either organic milk production or on the environment which can
include a spot of pond/beck dipping in our healthy
waterways!
10.00 Arrival with
refreshments
