Surrey Docks Farm is a working city farm and charity that enables the whole community to learn about farming, food production and the natural environment. We run a range of educational projects targeted to engage those who would benefit most and are supported by hundreds of dedicated volunteers who attend on a weekly basis.
We are open and free to visit from 10am-4pm every day of the week, including bank holidays! Please note all organised groups (schools, nurseries, holiday clubs, community groups etc) must book in advance via our schools page here.
We rely on donations to keep running. Please help us by giving what you can to our donation campaign here.
