it was a bright and breezy day down at Deen City Farm, with lots of families arriving for Easter activities (such as animal life drawing with a very cooperative chicken). Roxanne asked us to concentrate on the areas surrounding the farm, such as the car park and the pathways so, dressed in hi viz and armed with pickers, we cracked on and soon filled three large rubbish sacks. Afterwards we took time to meet the lambs, goats, pot-bellied pigs and other animals. This is an udderly lovely place to help out, so we hope to return soon.
