Woodgate Valley Urban Farm
📍 Birmingham, West Midlands
Registered charity rescue farm in Birmingham featuring goats, sheep, chickens, and rabbits across farmland, orchard, and woodland. Hands-on feeding experiences led by knowledgeable staff, with educational programs and school visit sessions.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for toddlers and children up to primary school age who want genuine hands-on animal contact rather than observation-only. A one-to-two hour visit covers the farm comfortably. The charity rescue focus means animals are well cared for, and staff are visibly engaged with children during feeding sessions.

“Amazing! Did a feeding experience and the man who led this was amazing with the children. Helped them understand everything about the animals and was just so helpful! Would definitely recommend going! The lady at the door was very accommodating too, did anything to help us ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We only stayed an hour as it was closing. But very friendly staff, had a good chat wil them. Very cheap too. Food for the animals cost is cheap. Overall we had a great hour feed the animals, no rushing round. Would recommend it.”

“Rescue farm where the animals are really well cared for. Our 2 year-old had a blast feeding the sheep and goats. £2 entry fee can't be beat. Great place to spend a couple hours.”

Overview
Woodgate Valley Urban Farm operates as a registered charity rescue farm on the edge of Birmingham, with animals including goats, sheep, chickens, and rabbits roaming across working farmland, orchards, and woodland. Staff-led feeding experiences give children direct hands-on contact with animals. The farm runs educational programs and therapeutic sessions, and the visitor centre is normally open — and roof repair works have affected it at times. Car parking is available on site.
