Welcome
Welcome
Woodlands Farm is an 89 acre working city farm on the border of the London Boroughs of Greenwich and Bexley.
As a charity Woodlands Farm is run as a conservation and education project, which provides an opportunity to find out about farming life and farm animals as well as a chance to experience the countryside within London. You can see native bird species, butterflies, wild flowers and ancient woodlands.
We are open to both individuals, families and groups. More information here.
Opening times:
Tuesday - Sunday, 9.30am-4.30pm.
Although free to enter as we are a charity donations are very welcome. Donate at the farm or via our website.
We look forward to welcoming you soon.

Lambing Day 2023

Children's Easter holiday events have been announced. These include a drop-in Easter crafts day and our annual egg-cellent Easter trail. Perhaps you'd like to learn some basic sewing skills and make your own padded keyring? We also have the return of Wild in the Woods, where children can cook over a fire and try shelter building. These sessions always sell out, so find more information and Eventbrite tickets via our calendar (to the left).
Easter Half Term Events

Woodlands Farm Trust are now providing small packs of seasonal seeds for schools to grow in the classroom. Our first batch of seeds will contain Basil, Flat Leaf Parsley, Chives and Coriander.
Each pack will have at least 10 seeds of each herb. These varieties can be sown all year round in a small container on a windowsill. An ideal start to your school herb garden over the winter as other seeds will not be able to germinate until January. The herb seed packs will cost £1.50 and can bought on the day at the farm.
Seeds for Schools

For younger children there is the Stick Man Activity Trail.
Packs can be purchased from the Mess Room in the Farmyard.
