Farmtastic! Double the farming fun as Attwell Farm Park collaborates with Moreton Show

divider

The Moreton Show team are excited to announce that Attwell Farm Park will be joining them at the event, a favourite of the local community, for the very first time on 7th September. The award-winning attraction, usually based at Beoley in Worcestershire, will be bringing along an abundance of different animals for visitors to pet, love and learn all about at Moreton Show 2024.

Attwell Farm Park has won TripAdvisor’s Travellers’ Choice Awards 2024, Visit Worcestershire’s Tourism Award for Large Visitor Attraction of the Year 2023/4 and Muddy Stiletto’s Best Family Attraction 2023/4 throughout Gloucestershire and Worcestershire – so it’s well worth a visit!

Stuart Mace, Show Chair says: ‘The Moreton Show team has listened to its visitors and packed in even more fun for the family this year.’ As farming is at the heart of Moreton Show - and always has been - the Society strives to champion British farmers and aims to educate visitors, especially the younger generations, about the importance of the people who work in the agricultural industry.

The team has also ensured that education remains the centre of the Show, to inspire even more children and young adults to consider a profession in the ag industry. Oliver Arundel, Attwell Farm Park, says: ‘Shows like the Moreton Show are fantastic opportunities for families to learn all about British farming and animals.’

Attwell welcomes over 200,000 families a year, to their usual site in Beoley, allowing visitors to meet over 80 species. They also host educational visits for schools and offer unique animal experiences allowing visitors to engage in interactive encounters, feeding sessions and immersive learning experiences.

Oliver continues, saying: ‘We're thrilled to be part of the Moreton-In-Marsh Show 2024! Visitors will have the chance to meet some of our family's favourite animals, including our charming alpacas, miniature ponies, pygmy goats, the world's largest spider, and incredible insects from the rainforest. ‘

You will find Farmer Mike and the Attwell team in the Farmtastic Area at Moreton Show on 7th September, along with an interactive mini version of his farm, including lots of amazing animals and creatures.

You will find the Oxford Sandy & Black Pig Society in the Farmtastic Area. Visitors will probably have seen these beautiful pigs on the latest season of Clarkson’s Farm. They are lovely animals with their gorgeous rusty coat and big black spots, you will definitely want to go say hi!

There will also be Claas pedal-operated rides on tractors, Wye Valley Falconry and much, much more in the fun Farmtastic Area!
