We will start at the farm with a brief introduction to us, the farm and history. The walk will then take us up onto the Barton Hills, stopping briefly a few times to discuss what we can see; the arable crops, environmental work we do and the wonderful view over the Barton Hills Nature Reserve.
We end back at the buildings for refreshments and your chance to ask questions and try / buy the award-winning rapeseed oils that we produce from the oilseed rape grown on the farm.
(Please Note the date and start time has been changed from that published in Festival programme).
