Family farm 30 minutes from Coventry invites children to meet baby animals this Easter

Published on

Children will have the opportunity to get acquainted with adorable young creatures at a farm’s Easter celebration prepared to introduce the newest additions to the site. Mini Meadows Farm in Northamptonshire is hosting its Easter at the Farm celebration running through to Sunday 12th April 2026, inviting families to savour the wonder of springtime while interacting directly with numerous newborn animals.

Central to this year’s activities is the farm’s cherished Maternity Ward, where visitors can observe the wonder of fresh life for themselves. Patrons will enjoy the unusual opportunity to see newly born lambs receiving nourishment from the farmers, alongside the playful behaviour of the farm’s youthful goats. With hand-feeding presentations occurring throughout the day, families will accumulate cherished recollections that remain long after the last chocolate egg has been consumed.

As well as the lambs and kids, visitors can enjoy face-to-face experiences with chicks, ducklings, guinea pigs and rabbits, rendering it a perfect excursion for animal lovers across all age groups. The farm’s participatory philosophy ensures every guest can connect with the creatures and build enduring Easter experiences.

Brand new for 2026, Mini Meadows Farm is introducing the Easter Egg Scramble – an energetic interpretation of the traditional egg hunt, located within a purpose-built, spring-themed indoor village. Children of every age can dash about uncovering eggs in an exciting, rapid-paced adventure designed to amuse all.

Easter consistently holds a special charm at the farm, though this year feels particularly extraordinary with so many fresh arrivals in our maternity ward, commented Mini Meadows Farm proprietor Ben Barraclough. Observing newborn lambs and goats at close quarters is an incomparable experience, and we are thrilled to offer our visitors this opportunity. With our fresh Easter Egg Scramble and indoor village, we anticipate greeting families for what looks set to be our most thrilling Easter period yet.

With spring flourishing fully, an abundance of charming creatures to befriend, and brand-new attractions to investigate, Easter at the Farm offers a fun-filled and memorable day for the whole family.

Owing to considerable interest, visitors are encouraged to reserve places in advance to secure their visit. For additional information and to purchase tickets, browse www.minimeadowsfarm.com.
