There will also be sheep racing, goat feeding, egg collection, rabbit cuddling and much more.

Steve said: “It’s hard to believe this is our 24th summer season at Church Farm but every year we try to make it our best yet.

“Our staff have had so much fun putting together our new scarecrow trail, which we hope will prove a good laugh for both adults and children alike.”

As well as meeting the farm’s new scarecrows, young guests can also spot the farm’s resident animals, including pygmy goats, a three-legged pig, meerkats, Shetland ponies and Highland cows.

And if the weather takes a turn there is still plenty to enjoy from tractor rides to the indoor beach or simply enjoying magnificent views of North Wales and the River Dee.

There are local, organic fruit and vegetables for sale in the farm shop as well as delicious treats for both adults and children alike in the coffee shop, including our popular ice cream parlour.
