Spring lambing event returns to Hampshire Farm Shop after two years
Westlands Farm Shop in Shedfield is hosting its popular lambing event after two years of it not going ahead.
Families from across Hampshire are invited to meet the new-born lambs and learn about Westlands Farm in the spring sunshine.
The lambing event will take place during the Easter school holidays from the 1st to the 4th April, 10AM to 4PM.
Westlands Farm Shop will be hosting a barbecue with meat straight from the butchery to the grill, and there will be plenty of activities for visitors to get involved with such as welly-wanging, giant tic tac toe, and a bouncy castle.
The team at Westlands Farm has been busy looking after the ewes ahead of the birth of the new arrivals which includes vaccinating the flock to make sure the lambs are protected from diseases that can be fatal, such as tetanus disease.
Farm Shop owner Kayleigh Collett said: "We are really excited to welcome families and visitors from across Hampshire to come and say hello to the lambs.
"We haven't been able to host our annual lambing event since before the COVID19 pandemic and we are really looking forward to it. We know many of our customers have really missed this spring event.
"There will be lots of different things for people to enjoy and we are really looking forward to a community and family focused event. Everyone is welcome."
For health reasons pregnant women should not attend this event.
