A new tractor shed, familiar faces and a closer look at the wildlife around us. Here’s a look back at a lively—and sometimes very muddy—2025 at Little Park Farm.
A fresh start for the outbuildings
One of our biggest projects of 2025 was replacing the old, rickety outbuildings with a new tractor shed. The old structures were practically holding themselves up with wishful thinking, so it was time for a change.
Out came the hammers and crowbars. With a fair bit of hard work and laughter along the way, we got there. The new shed is standing sturdy, and we’re thrilled with the result.
Goats, ponies and muddy adventures
Our goats—Dolly, Hayley and Jeff—kept happily munching away, enjoying their daily lunchtime outings and getting a little muddy along the way.
Tilly and Dotty perfected the art of hide-and-seek when it was time to come in for the night. By morning, they were back at the door hoping for a snack. They’ve got us well trained!
A welcome from Lucas and Rueben
Our farm dogs, Lucas and Rueben, remained the ultimate greeters, always ready to say hello to visitors.
Rueben had a rough patch with his heart condition during the year, but with his medication he was still going strong and enjoying life.
Discovering the wildlife on our doorstep
Ecologist Nigel Brown joined us at the farm and gave us a fresh appreciation of its biodiversity. He spotted all sorts of species and led us on fungi walks—a chance to slow down, look more closely and learn something new.
Thank you for being part of our year
