St Werburghs City Farm - Bristol

You can pet and feed the sheep and goats easily. They have groups for adults with additional needs and children's clubs. They do lots of community programs, and you can rent spaces for parties. Great cafe and a pub across the street, too. They also sell farm-reared meat and fresh eggs. Lovely bit of outdoor space.

What a wonderful place. St Werburgh’s City Farm is the sort of place that makes you stop and think—think about life, about community, about the sheer, unadulterated joy of doing something useful with your hands instead of hammering away at KPIs and ROI projections that will ultimately mean nothing when you’re worm food.

We came here today as part of a work volunteering scheme. And this is, quite honestly, one of the best days of the year for me.

Our host for the day was the utterly brilliant Alex, the farm’s site manager. You meet a lot of people in life, and some of them just get it. Alex gets it. He has the rare ability to be both welcoming and efficient, gently herding our corporate rabble into something resembling a useful workforce without once making us feel like we were in the way (which, let’s be honest, we probably were).

We dug holes. We built fences. We did some plumbing. We even built benches. But more than anything, we took time out of our lives to be in nature, to be with people, to be part of something real.

Because that’s what this farm is: something real. It’s for the community, run by the community, benefitting the community. It reminds us that life isn’t about boardrooms or spreadsheets, but about connection, about getting your hands dirty and actually doing something.

If you get the chance to visit, go. If you get the chance to volunteer, definitely go. You’ll do yourself some good. You’ll do the community some good. And, in the end, that’s what life is really about.

I’ve never been here before although being in Bristol for over ten years, a really relaxing day out for two young kids.
Animal farm was amazing for a first hand experience petting animals had the kids going crazy!
After so much excitement we popped over the street to try out the farm cafe.
I’ve ordered some coffee hash breakfast, beans on toast and hot chocolates for everyone. Food quantity and quality is worth the money, you could taste the freshness of the carefully procured ingredients.

Great charity. I've brought the kids here many times over the years. Today it was just me having a walk around, very peaceful place.

Lovely quiet space. We really enjoyed feeding the goat’s and being able to sit and watch them. Animals were so well cared for we loved watching the pigs having there belly’s scratched by a friendly chatty volunteer. I would recommend coming here especially if in need of some quiet time surrounded by nature .
