Take this rare opportunity to visit our farm and have-a-go at some exciting, unusual and adrenaline pumping activities. A fantastic day out for all ages.

Park at Bicton College and take the tractor and trailer ride to Bicton Home Farm where you will meet our agriculture team. Farm Manager Paul and shepherd Phil will be on hand with the agriculture students helping Bicton’s sheep to deliver their babies, but this year there is so much more to see and do:

  • Say hello to our new arrivals the calves and piglets

  • Feed a new born lamb

  • Pick up some course advice, souvenirs and enter our competitions at the Bicton College bus

  • Bicton Barbecue

  • EaRTH: Tour our Environmental and Renewable Technology Hub

Don't forget there is even more to experience on the Main College site. Hop on the tractor and trailer or take a walk through the grounds (activities will be signposted).

Please remember that women who are, or might be pregnant, should not enter the lambing areas because of the danger of Toxoplasmosis.

10am-4pm.
