Make the most of the summer at Vauxhall City Farm with a variety of free, family friendly activities for all ages.

Free family activities
Kids with a love for animals and a fascination for farm life are in for a treat for summer at Vauxhall City Farm, which is hosting free drop in sessions every Friday over the summer holidays. Feed the sheep, make friends with a pony, groom the rabbits or even walk a ferret at the farm.

Summer fun
Other free activities for children and families include pond dipping, craft sessions using recycled materials and growing herbs for the summer. Vauxhall City Farm covers a three quarters of an acre site and features an ecology garden, community allotments, wildlife pond and animal enclosures, making for an educational and entertaining day out.

Farmer for the day
As well as all the free drop in sessions over the summer at Vauxhall City Farm, there's also the chance for children to become a farmer for the day at a special workshop. Kids can get stuck into a range of activities such as mucking out, grooming, performing health checks on the animals, feeding and even making butter.

The free drop in sessions over the summer at Vauxhall City Farm take place every Friday over the summer holidays. There is no need to book in advance. Please note that children must be accompanied by an adult at all times. The farm is open from 10.30am - 4pm, Wednesday - Sunday.

The Farmer For A Day activity is open to children aged 7 - 12 and takes place on 10th, 17th, 24th and 31st August 2011. The workshops cost £40.00 for one child, or £75.00 for two. For more information and to book in advance, call 0207 582 4204.
