I mean cute or what! ๐
Our lambs are growing up so fast! But theyโre still cute little babies to us!
Splish splash they were taking a bath ๐
Sometimes our animals need an extra helping hand cleaning themselves โบ๏ธ
Did you see Ermentrude this half term? ๐
They had a stroll around the farm on Superhero day ๐ฅฐ
This week is Volunteers' Week ๐ฃ It's the perfect opportunity to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU to all our volunteers ๐ฅฐ
We welcome around 200 volunteers on site each week and they play a very important role in the running of the farm! ๐คฉ
Every volunteer is unique and we value the different skills and experiences that each volunteer brings.
Volunteering brings people together and gives you a chance to be an important part of the Stonebridge family. ๐
If you are interested in volunteering at the farm we are looking for site support volunteers. For more information apply online ๐
We leave the barnies alone for 5 minutes ๐
Sometimes all you want to do is sit in the paddocks and watch the sheep eat some grass ๐๐คญ
Thatโs Gardening Month done โ
๐ฉโ๐พ
Looking back through the photos proves there was some sunny days in May ๐
๐คญ
We hope you have enjoyed learning a bit more about the gardens. Make sure you have a wander through next time you visit ๐ค
A few months ago the Rotary Club of Nottingham were generous enough to donate us some crocus bulbs ๐ชป They really brightened up our flower beds and raised awareness for their work to stop Polio
Well their charitable endeavours don't stop there! This time the Trent Bridge Rotary Club make a generous donation to the farm to help continue our work ๐ฅฐ๐
A huge thank you to everyone at Trent Bridge Rotary club. They support so many amazing charities, it's an honour to be chosen as one of them!
Join us for Superhero Day at the farm! ๐ฆธโโ๏ธ
We have loads of games and activities for you and your little ones to enjoy ๐ฅณ
We also have sheep shearing happening that day too so why not pop by and watch out ladies get their annual haircut!
๐ฆธ๐ฆธโโ๏ธ
We are open as usual over the bank holiday and during half term ๐คฉ
As a lot of our keen gardeners might already know, bindw**d can be quite a nuisance w**d! It's quite prolific and unlike a lot of other pesky plants it can't be composed, booo! ๐
But luckily we have a solution here on the farm! Our animals love the stuff! ๐ฅฐ
Just a friendly reminder, please please please do not throw any garden waste into the animal paddocks! This includes cut grass, it is VERY dangerous for the animals! I'm afraid you have to get rid of your garden waste yourself! If you want to feed our animals you can buy bags.of animal food from the welcome cabin for 80p!
Beauty is everywhere in the gardens, especially when the sun is shining ๐ฅฐ๐
Whatโs your favourite spot in the gardens? Let us know in the comments below๐
๐ฃLooking for a bargain? Then look no further! ๐คฉ
We want you to get your garden looking gorgeous so we are holding a mega plant sale! Loads of the plants are 3 for 2 this weekend only! ๐๐ฟ
Help support the farm and transform your garden at the same time ๐
Caught in the act!
Our gardeners regularly work with the barn to make sure our animals paddocks are looking fresh and full of safe plants for them to munch on ๐ฑ
Kevinโs extension is looking gorgeously green at the minute, I wonder how long until heโs eaten all those plants ๐ค
We open the doors to Kevinโs Kingdom when the weather is nice and warm so he can venture out if he wishes ๐
Yesterday was World Bee Day ๐ (20th May)
We love bees here at the farm, they play a vital role in making the gardens thrive! ๐ท
We want to create even more educational resources for you and your little ones by creating a designated bee area. This will have areas where you can see inside the hive, the bees and how we extract the honey ๐ฏ
So if you ever see any of the staff in these outfit make sure you keep your distance!
We love having drumming here at the farm! ๐ฅณ Jude will be back again on June 17th ๐ฅฐ
๐ Thanks to all families who joined us at this morningโs Good Mood Boost Drumming Workshop over at Stonebridge City Farm in Sneinton ๐คฉ
We had a great time making music together in the Education Room ๐ถ
Weโll be back at the farm soon, so please keep an eye on the farmโs page for workshop announcements ๐ฃ
Thanks to The National Lottery Community Fund for supporting our community wellbeing project in Nottingham.

Weโre always looking for new and interesting ways to keep the farm and the gardens accessible for all and these raised beds are the perfect example of this ๐ฅฐ Gardening can be serious hard work and not everyone can bend up and down so easily so weโve brought the soil to them!

Next week we will be saying goodbye to our dear meerkat friend Margaret ๐ฅฒ It took a while but we have found an amazing rescue centre for her to move too.

BEES ๐ We have 5 bee hives here on the farm which help pollinate all our plants and flowers ๐ธ Bees are an incredibly important part of our eco-system and their numbers are dramatically decreasing. Doing more to help the bees is always at the back of our gardeners minds. Here are some of the things we do to help the bees at Stonebridge: -we plants LOADS of pollinator friendly plants and flowers -we donโt use any pesticides in our gardens -we have loads of trees that bees love! Such as apple or lime trees -we have a few bee baths dotted around the gardens for them to have a quick drink -we have lots of places for them to rest in, such as our big hotel and hollow logs and stumps We also sell our own honey in the shop which flies off the shelves ๐ฏ no pun intended! Visit our TikTok to see a video of the bees swarming last year! . . . . . . #nottingham #notts #cityfarm #urbanfarm #bees #savethebees

Grab yours from the welcome desk ๐ . . . . . . #nottingham #notts #cityfarm #urbanfarm #butterfly #butterflytrail #gardens #gardening #month
You know the saying โgive the rabbits some grass they will eat for a day. Grow the rabbits some grass and they will annihilate it in about 20 minutesโ Or words to that effect ๐ If you ever walk past the Bunny Village and think gosh thereโs not many plants in there, thatโs because the bunnies keep eating them all! We do regularly keep planting them ๐คฃ They even snatched the pansies out of the gardeners hands as she was trying to plant them! Watch out! ๐ ๐บ . . . . . . #nottingham #notts #cityfarm #urbanfarm #rabbits
