Clarita Floyd-Sanchez, Events Coordinator at Bath City Farm, said:

“While we’re thrilled to have such a broad, exciting range of events coming up at the Farm over the autumn months, our Autumn Fayre and Bonfire Night are probably what I’m most excited to see people coming along to. They’re both free events with no need to book — and there will be opportunities on-the-day to donate and support the Farm’s numerous programmes that support the local community. We’ll release more details about both as the weeks pass on, so make sure you’re following us on social media to find out more.”

“From family-friendly clubs to seasonal celebrations, the Farm continues to be a place where the community can gather, learn, and enjoy time in nature.”
