ARK FARM - BRINGING THE COUNTRYSIDE TO YOUR DOORSTEP

Tucked away in Bedfordshire, Ark Farm is a family-run smallholding with a big mission - to share the magic of the countryside with children and adults who might not have the chance to experience it first-hand. Instead of asking visitors to come to the farm, Ark Farm loads up the trailer and brings the farm to you.

Since 2009, this dedicated team has been rolling into school playgrounds, nurseries, care home courtyards and community spaces across the Home Counties, East Midlands and North London, creating hands-on encounters that leave lasting smiles and great memories. Whether it’s Pantz and Sox a pair of friendly goats, Thomas the curious donkey, cheeky ducks, or more unusual guests like barn owls, pygmy hedgehogs, chinchillas and sugar gliders, Ark Farm’s animals are ambassadors for rural life.
