Bookings are now open for Educational visits - open to school groups from reception & above.
Farmer Ted’s is a family run business and we combine farming fun with educational experiences so that children may enjoy learning about animals, habitats and food production within a safe environment. We cover most topics within the national curriculum.
Your time at Farmer Ted’s will be an educational experience and group supervisors should be advised that your visit is fully timetabled, with the first activity starting at 10:30am and the day finishing at approximately 2.00pm.

Visiting schools will be charged £9.75 per child for an Educational Visit. Supervision is based on a 1:5 ratio for reception children, 1:6, for key stage one, 1:10 for key stage two.
When this ratio is exceeded, we then charge £8.25 per head for the extra adults. A non-refundable booking deposit of £100.00 is required to confirm your chosen date. The outstanding balance must be paid in full on the day or prior to arrival.
Visiting schools and groups are assigned a room as a base, to store packed lunches, coats, etc. There is no extra cost for this service, but we do ask that it is left as it was found, clean and ready for use. On busy days, large rooms may be split with a partition.
To book your visit please email farmerted@farmerteds.com or call the office on 0151 526 0002.
