Boydells Dairy Farm is a working family farm run by the Threadgold family. The farm is open to the public and specialised in sheep milking, set in the beautiful North Essex countryside and an hour's drive from central London.
You'll find most of the usual farm animals here and you'll be treated to a guided tour with lots of hands on activities. You can try your hand at milking a cow, feeding hens, riding a donkey car or take a peak at the llamas. The main highlight is the sheep milking which takes place in the rapid exit parlour, milking batches of 18 ewes at a time.
The farm is sect acros 105 acres which is used to produce food for the animals and there are 300 milking ewes and their offspring too, with goats pigs and donkeys.
The guided tors are meant to be educational and fun and you'll have access to the picnic and play area too. There's a small shop selling refreshments, dairy produce and plenty of pocket money souvenirs to remember your visit by.
You can join in on the afternoon routine work on the farm, feeding, collection eggs, milking and you can even buy bags of feed to help you make friends with the animals. You can also enjoy a tractor and trailer trip into the fields.
