Meet The Team
Volunteers
We have a wonderful, dedicated group of volunteers who will help you on the farm.
Kate and Jess
Our sheepdogs are usually the first to welcome visitors to the farm! They would LOVE to play ball with you.
Molly
Molly is a very calm and gentle horse. She is great at helping people increase their confidence with horses.
Cath
Hi, I'm Cath. I am looking forward to being able to introduce you to all of our lovely animals and share all the great things that are going on at Corn Close with you.
Tim
Hi, I’m Tim and I can help you to learn how to make things out of wood and how to grow things in the allotment.
Stephen
Hi, I’m Stephen and I can help you to learn about farming and how to look after the farm animals.
Stella and Nina
Stella and Nina are great friends and are rarely apart from each other. They love to have their long manes groomed.
Goats
We have a very friendly group of goats of all sizes and ages! They really enjoy being groomed and going for walks with you in the beautiful Nidderdale countryside.
Tina and Luna
Our very curious Shetland Ponies love to meet new people!
Phil and Isobel
We may have the friendliest sheep in Yorkshire! These two love to meet new people and go on walks with visitors around the farm.
Shakira and Shania
Our Kunekune pigs are very friendly and love a good back scratch. They can often be heard snoring as they snooze on their favourite log!
Ozzie, Steve & Derek
These boys love meeting people and making new friends – especially if they come with food!
Our hairy guineas
Our guinea pigs love to have a cuddle and a brush, and their favorite food is freshly picked grass!
Chickens
We have a variety of chickens of different colours and sizes! You can collect the eggs and some enjoy a cuddle, too.
Ducks
Our ducks can be very chatty and they love to swim and dive in their stream - whatever the weather!
