🌞 Celebrate Summer at Vallis Farm!
A joyful, food-filled, family day out

Join us for our Summer Fete - a vibrant celebration of community, creativity, and the tastes of the season. With something for all ages, it’s a perfect way to soak up summer on the farm.

🌿 Activities for All Ages:

Comedy Garden Tour
Rare Species Entertainment (creators of Mojo Moves and local legend Virginia Saggers) invite you on a comedic silent disco tour of the Vallis Farm site with Lady of the Manor Venitia Arabella Vallis III. Hear about the plants, the plans and the pot-bellied pet pig, delivered via headphone (as her ladyship is a little hard of hearing). Expect silliness, music, laughter and a lot of hot air.

Parking

Parking spaces are limited up at the farm and so are only bookable in advance. We encourage you to walk or cycle to the farm - there are footpaths from Frome, we are on the East Mendip Way. If not feasible you may come to the farm to drop off, then park in the bottom car park (Vallis Vale) where places are first come first serve. Please do not park on the drive way.
