The
Farmyard
Stickney Farm Park has been created with children in mind! Children
of all ages can meet and learn about the animals in our farmyard.
You can see a few comments from visitors to the farm park by
clicking
here.
You
can meet them up close when you feed them with our special pellets
- not forgetting to hold your hand out flat - and stroke or groom
them, feed the ducks and geese on the pond or the hens in the
field and also collect their eggs.
At certain times you can see chicks hatching out in their incubator.
There are clear signs on pens and paddocks with simple information
that can be read by children followed by more detailed information
for interpretation by adults.
Please
ensure that you and the children in your charge wash your hands
thoroughly after touching the animals or the gates, and above
all before eating.
Pets
Corner

This area provides homes for smaller animals such as chipmunks,
tortoises, hamsters, gerbils and mice.
Play Areas
Play areas
allow children to play safely and let off steam and are located
near the reception and tea-room.
There
is one play area for 2 to 5 year olds and a second for 4 to 8
year olds and a third for 5 to 12 year olds, all three sited
on safety grass.
The
former two play areas have a turnstile, sit-in spring mobile
"Holly Hedgehog", sit-on mobile "Rocking Rooster",
Woodland Cottage and multi-play system comprising: roof tower,
double tower, ramp with handrails, double slide, causeway, hexagon
tunnel, cheeky monkey climbing wall, lookout barrier, semi-scoop
barrier and 2 flat barriers. This choice of equipment has been
installed as it is designed for inclusive play, with both disabled
and non-disabled children in mind.
The
final play area has 2 towers with roofs, sloping climbing wall,
open slide, arch pole slider, vertical rope ladder, two play
barriers, and a bridge. In addition there will be a trampoline
with safety arena.
Ride-on
pedal tractors, a sand pit and toys all add to the fun to be
had at Stickney Farm Park. At special times of the year there
will be a bouncy play barn.
Emily's
Pantry
Our
tea-room serves a range of home cooked and locally sourced foods
to include snacks, healthy meals (hot or cold), cakes, gateaux
and a variety of drinks. We hope to be awarded the status of
"Tastes of Lincolnshire".
Whatever you choose from our menu it will be fresh and tasty
and at an affordable price.
Picnic Areas
There are picnic areas at the Farm Park so please feel free to
bring your own pre-packed picnic if you do not wish to purchase
from Emily's Pantry.
Gift
Shop
Our gift shop is stocked with souvenirs and gifts at reasonable
prices. The emphasis is on farm related gifts for children -
from books to cuddly toys to farm animals and tractors! We also
have lots of pocket money items that the children will think
are great.
The
Greenwich Meridian
We believe that we are the only Farm Park with the Greenwich
Meridian passing through its farmyard! Come along and stand in
the Eastern and Western hemispheres of the world!!
Toilet

The toilets are located adjacent to the reception, and there
are toilets for disabled and non-disabled visitors, male and
female with baby changing facilities in both.
