Introductions
West Town Farm and Education
West Town has been hosting school visits for over 10 years. The farm has incredible range of locations including an old railway cutting, newly planted orchard, stream, meadows and woodland. We have a wide experience of working with groups from nursery, through primary and secondary up to college and beyond!
West Town and organicARTS
The partnership between West Town and organicARTS allows a rich variety of opportunities for your visit from practical farming bedding out the cows and pumpkin harvesting to creating a willow pig and storytelling in the orchard. If you have particular themes and objectives then our team of farmers, educators and artists can create something specially for you!
Visits
Visits are fully led by us and are typically charged at £4 / person up to 40 people with a minimum of £80. This might involve environmental art, storytelling, woodland skills, science investigations, cooking or a variety of other areas.
