Ospreys had a glorious autumn day at the farm on Wednesday. The sun was shining and the day was beautiful. Jackie and John, the farmers, have a free range egg farm as well as some arable land and we explored what goes on at the farm. We started by collecting hidden eggs and packing them in egg boxes and then all got aboard a huge trailer and had a tractor ride to some new woodlands. Here we gathered different shapes, sizes and colours of leaves and had a short blustery walk to join the tractor and trailer again. Next stop was a hazel coppice where we ran about in the woods, collected sticks and attempted to build a den. We hopped back on board the trailer and we had a leisurely journey back to the farm house for lunch. After lunch we looked at different grains and did some grinding to make flour, some of which was used to make drop scones which we all enjoyed spread with butter and jam. A fantastic day out! Many thanks to Jackie and John and the Country Trust for organising.
