Deen City Farm

Two alpacas and a snow-white peacock are just some of the unusual animals proud to call the five-acre Deen City Farm, on the fringes of the South Wimbledon, their home. Goats, horses, chickens, ducks and geese are also to be found at the farm which is based on National Trust land, part of the Morden Hall Park Estate. As well as the amazing collection of cuddly creatures, Deen City Farm also boasts an incredibly resourceful programme of events and activities. Youngsters can have fun learning all about looking after animals in the Young Farmers Club. Grooming, feeding, mucking out and playing with the farms animals form part of this educational but fun group. Quizzes and games, along with hands-on activities, make the Own a Pony Club absorbing and enjoyable for young children while arts, crafts, games and cooking are used to support the Discovery Club. There's also horse-riding throughout the year - for children under the age of eight who want a short 'taster' session in the saddle, pony rides take place every Wednesday at 12 noon.
