About

Forge Mill Farm is now home to many animals, including rare breeds, and is well loved and visited by tens of thousands of families a year. The farm has recently been relaunched with lots of new farm animals – many of them rare breeds – to visit and learn about, an interactive education tour for children and adults to learn about animal welfare and where our food comes from, and more opportunities to get to know and love the animals. This includes a brand new accessible Forge Mill Farm Trail, expanding the size of the farm and visitor experience. Forge Mill Farm will continue to expand throughout 2022 and 2023 with plans for a Farm Activity Barn and Forge Mill Farm Cafe. 

Forge Mill Farm Education

Our vision for Forge Mill Farm is to become the best animal welfare and food education facility in the West Midlands within the next three years. Forge Mill Farm is already home to Sandwell College Animal Welfare Students, and will be expanding its offering to more apprentices, work experience placements, animal welfare and farming students, and volunteers.  Our new education team will work with Schools, colleges, and community groups to bring people into the Country Park and Forge Mill Farm and learn about forestry education, animal welfare, and food production and healthy eating education.
