Farm Parks are often working farms set in large expanses of parkland and countryside. The Parks have a varied selection of animals to see with the opportunity to 'get up close' and learn about them by sight, touch, smell and feel. In fact many farms offer hands on activities, including cow and goat milking, bottle feeding lambs and hand feeding, rabbits, chickens, pigs and other small farm animals. Some Farm Parks specialise in breeding rare farm animals or exotic birds.

Most Farm Parks offer a multitude of other activities and facilities for families and children. Tractor and combine harvester rides, pony riding, fishing, picnic areas, adventure playgrounds, go karting, giant inflatables and bouncy castles, are just a few examples. Most Farm Parks also have restaurants, tea rooms and gift shops.

Park Farms are a very popular venue for children's birthday parties, but some have function rooms, pavilions, or historic properties for hire by large groups for weddings, conferences, team building activities or for any variety of special event or celebration.
