Beekeeping experience days, now booking for 2027

Visit the pop up shop

Have you stopped by our pop-up shop on the edge of The New Forest? Originally built for Christmas, it quickly became a favourite spot, so now we open every Thursday.

Building the pop up shop, was a real labour of Love. We re-purposed materials and bits and bobs from around the farm to make and decorate the shop. Including the old workshop garage door, a Victorian egg incubator, a wooden ladder and an oak slab which made a lovely counter top. Some of the windows were made using old doors and others rescued from a skip at a local school.

Special thanks to Phil and Shane, our dedicated volunteers who made it all possible. After two weeks (and plenty of hot dogs!), they transformed our vision into reality.

Opening Hours:

every Thursday, 10am - 4pm

Parking

There is some parking available where you can find it on the farm, or you can park outside of the gates on Hart Hill and then walk into the farm and follow the signs to the shop. There is also parking in the pub opposite the farm; The Travellers Rest, which is a lovely little pub and they do great food if you fancy making a day out of it.

Dogs

We have a number of free roaming exotic birds on the farm, so we please ask you to keep dogs on a lead.
