Feeding the goats at Monk Park Farm park in Yorkshire
Monk Park Farm park in Yorkshire welcomes Schools and Groups

You can meet so many of our favourites whether you’re stroking the guinea pigs and rabbits, feeding the lambs or petting the baby goats (subject to availability and restrictions).

You can also get up close with the wallabies, deer and alpacas as you take a barrel ride through their fields!

We have a 1 mile walk around the farm with feed stations (animal feed is available from the shop).
