Oxford City Farm visitors delighted with new twin baby goats

The kids arrived on Monday, May 18, and are already proving popular with everyone who visits the farm.

One of the farm’s original goats, donated by Norton & Yarrow Cheese, gave birth to the healthy twins at around 10:00am and 10:20am.

Bradley Soule, community grower at Oxford City Farm, said: “It was great timing.

“The kids were born on Monday morning, and later that day we welcomed a new group for our monthly goat milking training.

“It meant trainees got to meet the farm’s newest arrivals straight away, which is a really special introduction to life on the farm.”

Oxford City Farm is a community-led urban farm in East Oxford that offers people of all ages the chance to connect with food, farming and nature.

The farm runs regular goat-milking training sessions and welcomes visitors to learn more about animal care, small-scale farming, and food production.

Nicole Titera, farm lead at Oxford City Farm, said: “As a registered charity, Oxford City Farm relies on donations, fundraising, and income from produce and activities to continue delivering its community programmes.

“Every visit, purchase and donation helps us keep the farm open and accessible to the community.”

The farm is open to visitors and volunteers from 10am to 1pm every Friday and Saturday.
