Overbury Farms Open Farm Sunday
In our busy lives it is easy to forget how our food is produced. At Overbury we enjoy showing people why farming on Bredon Hill is so important. We are an arable farm with sheep. We grow a range of crops including wheat, oilseed rape, potatoes and peas. 2007 Events The children's quiz was won by 7 year old Amelia & the half lamb feedback form draw was won by JS from Earls Croome. Feedback included: "lovely day, my 3 yr old son really enjoyed himself" "The whole day was lovely, the highlight being holding the lambs! They were very cute, we all liked Pickle the dog" "Excellent day out, especially for children!! - very informative and "hands on". We have also had a Countryside Foundation for Education day for over 200 schools children & their teachers as well as opening for Open Farm Sunday. 2006 Events We were involved in several open days including Farm Sunday. Our village schools had several visits seeing hay making, lambing and shearing. There were harvest visits for local children. Our Oat harverst was filmed. To watch it follow the Country Channel links (below & also with the logo) followed by "Watch now" and navigate the scroll bar to "Getting your oats" www.countrychannel.tv We enjoy taking local schools to see a variety of things over the farming year. |
