Is it too early to mention the "C" word...?

CHRISTMAS!

There, we said it. If you're already starting to think about your Christmas shopping, did you know that you can raise money for the farm simply by buying online from your favourite retailers?

That's right!

If you shop via Give As You Live you can get those gifts from Not On The High Street, John Lewis, Ebay (and more!) for each purchase you make, we get a donation, at no extra cost to you.

Sign up to shop via Give As You Live and support the farm here: https://www.oxfordcityfarm.org.uk/give-as-you-live

Thanks to the Oxfordshire Community Foundation Thriving in Nature Fund we started the Young City Farmers Club in the early summer and are running it again this term.

The young farmers are aged between 10-14 years old have been learning to look after the animals as well as a variety of other skills.

"In the summer we harvested potatoes, milked goats, picked from our herb beds and made Paneer cheese and potato salad. We had a visit from a vet who talked to the children about careers in animal care and we heard lots of great vet stories.

This term the group have learned about preserving our food, trying their hand at making ketchup, as well as spending time with the animals!"
