Mum was happily resting in the straw while her 5 large piglets were playing together until they decided they wanted their mum but mum stuck to her guns. These wonderful pigs were at Clink Care Farm at Toft Monks. Thank you for letting me visit and showing me around the farm.
As a care farm they combine the care of the land with the care of people. They offer opportunities for people to help out on the farm. Because of the natural therapeutic environment, this can aid people’s recovery and even be a preparation for employment in the farming sector or other industries. The care farm also provides an alternative to daycare by offering many meaningful activities on a working farm.
I hope that a few drawings will result from this visit.
