About Marlborough Mini Farm at Blenheim Palace
Meet the four-legged and feathered summer guests!
This summer, the Walled Garden comes alive with the sights, sounds and snuffles of the Marlborough Mini Farm.
From 21 July to 01 September, the orchard just beyond the garden wall (next to the Adventure Play) plays host to a charming collection of farm animals, including the friendly Berkshire pigs, gloriously plumed Buff Orpington chickens, wonderfully shaggy Cotswold sheep and characterful English goats.
All of our breeds are recognised by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust and are Red List / Priority Breeds – this means that they are native livestock breeds which are considered at risk, and are being monitored for conservation.
Marlborough Mini Farm creates the perfect opportunity to meet these animals, learn more about these breeds and discover what makes each one so special. The animals absolutely love meeting their visitors.
To keep them happy and healthy, though, enjoy them with your eyes rather than your hands.
