Last week we welcomed Skelmanthorpe Junior School for another brilliant farm visit — and what a day they had 🌟
The children met the cows 🐄, collected fresh hens’ eggs 🥚, made their own butter 🧈, explored the farm machinery 🚜, and planted seeds 🌱 to learn how crops begin their journey on the farm.

A huge well done to all the pupils for getting stuck in, asking great questions, and bringing so much enthusiasm 💛

🐮🌾 Christ Church Academy Visits — April & May at Burton Beef! 🌾🐮

We’ve had two brilliant visits from Christ Church Academy over April and May — and what a fantastic pair of groups they were.

The children got properly stuck into farm life:

🐄 Meeting the cows and learning how we care for them all year round

🥚 Collecting hens’ eggs from our free‑roaming girls

🧈 Making butter the old‑fashioned way

🌱 Planting seeds and talking about how food grows

🚜 Looking at real farm machinery and discovering what each machine does

✏️ Chalking farm pictures on our giant blackboard — some top‑tier tractor art appeared

Both groups were curious, polite, and full of brilliant questions. It’s always a joy to welcome local schools and help children understand where their food comes from.

📣 School visits are fully funded for schools — but spaces are limited.

🐄 Kirkburton First School – On the farm!

Last week we welcomed two brilliant groups from Kirkburton First School onto the farm. They got stuck into real jobs, asked cracking questions, and saw first‑hand how good food is produced 🌾.

The children:

🧈 Churned their own butter — cream, elbow‑grease, and plenty of giggles

🥚 Collected eggs — learning how to handle the hens gently and spot which hens lay which colours

🌱 Planted seeds — taking home their own pots

🐮 Met the cows — and learned about feed, bedding, daily care, and why healthy cattle matter for healthy food

🚜 Explored farm machinery — tractors, feeders, and the kit that keeps a working farm running

✏️ Chalked farm pictures on our massive blackboard — some brilliant tractor 🚜 cow 🐄 and chicken 🐔 art appeared!

It’s exactly why we open the gates: to help local children understand the land around them and the work that goes into producing honest, traceable food.

📣 If your school would like to arrange a visit, we’d love to hear from you. Visits are fully funded for school groups, but spaces are limited.
Contact us at [email protected] ✉️.

If you know of a school that may like to take advantage of this, please share this post with them 🙌.

We’ve put new signs up around the farm following the updated Dogs on Leads law. Thank you to everyone who’s already helping keep livestock safe — it really does make a difference.

With the avian flu housing being lifted on 9th April, a quick reminder that hens are classed as livestock, and ours have access to all our fields. Please keep dogs on a lead anywhere livestock may be present, even if you can’t see them straight away.

We appreciate everyone doing their bit to keep the countryside safe for animals, walkers, and neighbours alike.
