VISITORS to Humble Bee Farm in Flixton may get the chance to meet some new born lambs during an open day next month.
The award-winning working farm, which offers glamping, camping and holiday cottages, will host a lambing and calving open day on Sunday, March 24.
There will be two opportunities to visit the lambing barn and hear farmer John Warters, known as Farmer Percy, describe how busy lambing season can be.
Guests can book online for either an 11am slot or a 2pm slot with a ticket price of £2.50 per person (plus small booking fee). Places are limited.
Julia Warters, co-owner of Humble Bee Farm, said: “Lambing and calving is one of our busiest times of year here at Humble Bee.
“We are very much looking forward to welcoming visitors to our farm for this rare opportunity to learn about a key time in the farming year.
“We will also give visitors the chance to see our glamping accommodation and we also have a small children’s play area.
“This event is part of our ongoing commitment to offering one of the best experiences for visitors to our site.”
The day will also include a chance to explore the nature trail, visit some lambs in a petting area, enjoy a question and answer session and complete a themed quiz sheet. Hot drinks will be available.
