In an attempt to wear the kids out during half-term we paid a visit to Greenmeadow Community Farm in Cwmbran.I haven’t been there in a long time and was very pleased to find there was plenty to do! It was very busy (always a good sign) and there was a small queue in front of us to get in (no bad thing) where we were served by a smiley lady. We paid £20 for a family ticket which I think is great value for a family of 2 adults and 3 children.We also picked up 2 bags of animal feed for £1.

We turned up just in time to see the pig race which was great fun and drew quite a crowd!

We then fed the goats who are really cute!

The dragon water feature is central to everything and the kids love it!

There are several plays areas,one of which is a huge wooden adventure playground.I didn’t play on it…honest!A smaller playground for the younger children and a sandpit with ride-on tractors.

The children also got to sit with some very sweet animals on their laps 🙂

I was very pleased to see there were several hand washing stations dotted around too so we could wash the childrens hands before having a lolly from Cafe Cwtch.

They also offer tractor rides at various times during the day.We didn’t take part on this occasion as the kids were too busy!

We were very lucky to have great weather (for a change) and the kids loved their day at the farm.If you’re ever in the area,pop in!
