Meanwood Valley Urban Farm is a charity established in 1980 to provide a 'taste of the country' within the city boundaries. It provides educational services to disadvantaged young people and adults and offers environmental education to primary school children.
It is a working farm with a wide variety of animals, amenity and market gardens and a range of natural habitats. Many of the animals can be seen from close quarters and fresh farm eggs can be bought in the Farm Shop. There is a small play area for under 12s and the independently-run Barn Coffee Shop is also located on the Farm.
In addition to the animals, there are several woodland walks including a longer walk into the Scott Hall Copse at the far end of the Farm.
