This is your chance to showcase your imagination, support a local event, and win a wheelbarrow full of pumpkins!

Whether you’re a seasoned scarecrow craftsman or just looking for some family-friendly fun, everyone’s welcome to enter. The best scarecrow — judged for creativity, originality, and that irresistible autumn charm — will receive a voucher for a wheelbarrow brimming with pumpkins to be collected from Dreamcare Farm. ( just in time for Halloween )

Here’s How It Works:

• Show off your building skills and have your scarecrow admired by the whole community.

• Support a fun, local event while celebrating the harvest season.

Entries are open now! Bring your scarecrow to life — funny, spooky, classic, or completely out-of-the-box. Just make sure it can brave the elements and stand proud among the fields of Dreamcare Farm.

Don’t miss your chance to be part of the fun. Submit your scarecrow, enjoy time on the farm, and maybe walk away with a voucher for a wheelbarrow full of pumpkin goodness!

Your Dream Care Farm CIC Visit – Important Information & Welcome!

Dear Visitor,

Thank you for booking your visit to Dream Care Farm CIC! We’re excited to welcome you for a memorable experience. To ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable time, please take a moment to review these important notes before your arrival.

Health & Safety Guidelines

Your well-being and the welfare of our animals are our top priorities.

•Animal Interaction: You’ll enjoy a hands-on experience with our animals. While animal-to-human disease transmission is rare, it’s easily prevented.

◦Hand Hygiene is Key: Always wash your hands thoroughly immediately after touching animals and before eating or touching your face. We have excellent handwashing facilities on-site with antibacterial soap, running water, blue roll, and sanitiser. Please follow the instructions posted to prevent cross-contamination.

•Farm Visits: To protect our animals from potential diseases, please ensure you have not visited any other farms, zoos, or animal contact establishments within 7 days prior to your visit, or plan to visit any within 7 days after your visit to Dream Care Farm.

Interacting with Our Animals

Our animals are generally friendly and accustomed to people, but they are still animals.

•Animal Behaviour: Animals can bite, especially if startled or when competing for food. We will provide specific guidance on animal behaviour and interaction upon your arrival, particularly concerning factors like hot weather.

•Feeding the Pigs: Please do not hand-feed the larger pigs. They can become very competitive and accidents may happen. Instead, kindly throw feed over the pen wall, allowing them to forage safely.

Food & Drink

•Designated Picnic Area: You are welcome to bring your own snacks. To minimise infection risks, please consume all food and drink in our designated picnic area. This area is located across the bridge, near the blue caravan.

•Pre-Meal Handwashing: It is crucial to wash your hands thoroughly, following our guidelines, before consuming any food or drink.

Children’s Supervision

Adults are fully responsible for the children in their care and must ensure all health and safety measures are strictly followed.

Arrival Information

•Directions: Please ignore any Sat Nav instructions that try to send you down Pepper Lane. Our entrance is clearly marked on Beyton Road, located just before or after Pepper Lane, depending on your direction of travel. Look out for our large signs and the stall at the entrance. Google map location

•Tickets: We operate a virtual ticketing system. You do not need to bring a physical ticket; your email confirmation is all that is required for entry. We will have your booking details on our system.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We are dedicated to providing a safe and enriching environment for everyone. We eagerly anticipate your visit and hope you have a truly wonderful time with us!

Warm regards,

The Dream Care Farm Team
