Nunny’s Farm to open for free family fun day this weekend thanks to generous donation

A popular farm in Grimsby is opening up to the public for free this weekend – and booking isn’t required.

From 10am to 5pm on Saturday, August 31, Nunny’s Farm on Wootton Road, Nunsthorpe is opening up to anyone and everyone for a special fun day, with a wide range of activities planned throughout the day.

The free entry event has all been made possible thanks to generous funding from South Ward councillors Janet Goodwin, Tim Mickleburgh and Sheldon Mills. All donations received on the day will go towards protecting the animal enclosures at the farm against the winter storms.

The fun day will include animal talks, animal handling sessions and the launch of the new sheep walk-through, where visitors will have the chance to get in amongst the flock of friendly sheep.

At lunchtime, children will also be able to meet and greet the much-loved characters Bluey and Hey Duggee, while the Floss n’ Pop stall will be at the event all day serving up candyfloss. Robbie Carrot the Balloon Man will also be on hand to make an array of wacky balloon creations.

According to a post on the Nunny’s Farm Facebook page, the main car park at Centre4 and the overflow car park on Wootton Road will be open, but spaces are limited.

The owners have given the following advice and pointers for anyone wishing to attend the event:

  • The main car park at Centre4 and the overflow car park on Wootton Road will be open, but spaces are limited. Please park responsibly and have patience.
  • If you have to find alternative parking on the surrounding streets, please park considerably for our neighbours and to ensure our emergency services can still gain access.
  • We promote positive health and well-being, so if you are from the local area, perhaps consider walking to us, or catching the Number 3 Stagecoach bus to reduce congestion. Support our local economy and get your steps in.
  • Please be respectful to all our staff, volunteers, partner organisations and other visitors when queuing.
  • The mascots will be taking breaks throughout their visit for the welfare of the staff. They will return after a short break to resume meeting and greeting you all.
  • We are looking forward to seeing you, and don’t forget to tag us in your photos on socials.
