Conservation
Home Farm is a working farm and one of the largest rare breed centres in Europe. Conservation is at the heart of our work, and we are passionate about local farming, its links to heritage, and how we can preserve the industry for future generations.
All animals at Home Farm are native to the UK and most are classed as rare breeds by the Rare Breed Survival Trust. As a rare breeds centre we help to ensure the continuation of some of the oldest breeds of farm animals in the country, and provide a living legacy people can enjoy now and in the future.
During your visit you will run into all sorts of farm animals that you are unlikely to see anywhere else, including a wide variety of rare breed poultry. A full list of our rare breeds is available in our Rare Breeds guide.
