Poole Farm is a community farm nestled at the centre of Derriford Community Park. The park comprises 147 hectares of beautiful natural space with wooded valleys, wildflower meadows and rivers. Learning and wellbeing through nature is farm’s ethos and underpins everything they do. The aim is to re-connect people with nature by exploring the woods, stomping through puddles, counting butterflies, meeting the animals, learning about bees and beaver watching. Places like Poole Farm provide new experiences, break down barriers and help make nature fun!
