JOIN in the fun at Tatton Park’s Farm until August 23, with numerous activities to delight the whole family.

Set in a corner of the park known as Tatton Dale, the farm is an authentic working farm and was in its heyday at the heart of the vast Tatton estate, feeding family, guests and staff.

Delve into this Field to Fork story and make the most of your visit, from milking demonstrations to fun dog shows, ice cream making to sheep racing, meeting the chicks in the hatchery to jam making; there’s something for everybody.

You can talk to the Teamsman and watch traditional farm machinery in action or join in the excitement with Tractor Ted on Tour.

Celebrate rural life at a traditional country fair and get back to nature with the whole family for Forest Fun week - there’s plenty to keep you and your family busy during the summer holidays.
