A farm experience like no other…
We can tailor our private farm tours and ecology walks to your needs – have a look at the options below and then get in touch to chat about how we can create the perfect experience for your group!
ADVANCE BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL!
Private Meet & Greet with the Flock
Make friends with a friendly flock of sheep as farmers and craftswomen Sophie and Lucy share their passion for these sweet animals while you feed, pet and take pictures with them! Then step inside the craft studio and feel right at home chatting to Sophie and Lucy over tea and cake by the crackling wood stove. You’ll learn about the wonders of wool and how it’s processed from ‘lamb to loom’, try your hand at carding wool and then make a small needle felted keepsake ornament to take home!
This tour runs for 1.5hrs and includes coffee/tea and cake.
Flora, Fauna & Folklore: Private Ecology Walk
Embark on a nature walk like no other! Join our expert ecologist, Sophie, on a guided journey through our breathtaking 11-acre nature reserve. Discover the magic of woodland and bogland as you engage your senses, gather natural materials, and unlock the folklore of plants and wildlife. As a special treat, artist Lucy will guide you in creating your own eco-printed bag to take home, using the ancient Japanese art of Hapazome. Don’t miss the chance to spot rabbits, birds of prey, and even deer during this wild wander, and then feel right at home as you chat with Sophie and Lucy over tea and cake and learn more about their nature-focused farming practices.
This tour runs for 1.5hrs and includes coffee/tea and cake.
Why choose?!
We can combine both our Meet & Greet with the Flock and Ecology Walk, to create a truly memorable farm and nature experience!
Our combined tour runs for 3hrs and includes a delightful coffee/tea and cake break.
Anything else I should know?
As the tours are held on a working farm and include an outdoor element, participants will need to bring suitable clothing (e.g. wellies/boots, rain jacket, warm layers on colder days).
The tours do consist of some outdoor elements in natural areas on uneven ground. The nature trail includes some slopes, and travels over small logs etc. and the nature trail and farm paths are not currently wheelchair accessible. However, tours may be adapted to suit participants with additional physical needs and we ask you to please get in touch prior to booking to discuss your needs.
All ages are welcome, but children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
Availability & price:
All of our farm tours and ecology walks are bespoke to your needs, and we can work with you on an option tailored for your group size and needs. Please get in touch by emailing Sophie at info@windrushfarm.ie
