Get to know us 👨🏼‍🌾👩🏼‍🌾👩🏼‍🌾👨🏼‍🌾

It’s been a while since we introduced ourselves and we’ve had a good few new followers over the past year so we thought it was a good time to let you know the faces behind Trench Farm 🤩

We are a family run business who are all passionate about making Trench Farm a fun place for you and your family to visit! We don’t always agree the best way to do that…but we have lots of fun along the way.

We also have a great little team of seasonal staff who help us at weekends and at our events and we know you guys think they are great too!! 🫶🏼

Next up: What do we do?

Alpaca Experiences don’t stop when the summer ends! If you’re wondering what you could do on the weekends to get outside and do something fun and a bit different, then this post is for you 🦙🤩

Our Alpaca Walks and Alpaca Picnics are still available to book right up until the end of November!
Come along and walk our cuddly Alpacas around the fields and then even finish off with a picnic, prepared by us, in The Hut. You can also spend some time with our cheeky goats! It’s a fab way to spend a morning or afternoon!

With kids going back to school and the evenings getting a bit darker, getting out at the weekends is even more important 🌞

Book Club 📚

Our next book club meeting is Tuesday 12th of May in The Barn 🤩

This months book was No One Saw a Thing by Andrea Mara

We want this to be a stress free book club, more about being more accountable for reading more books but with a lovely social benefit! We have a max number we can accommodate in the barn so to join each month you will need to book your space on our website. If you book in and can’t make it, please cancel your space.

There is a small fee of £3 which you can bring along on the night, just to cover refreshments etc.

Looking forward to seeing everyone 🫶🏼🫶🏼
