The farm walk will involve a guided tour around the blueberry polytunnels, packhouse and parts of the arable farm to showcase the diversity of operations and demonstrate how farming and wildlife can work together.

This event forms part of the Nene Valley Festival celebrating the natural and historic assets of this beautiful part of the county through a diverse nine day programme of events aimed at both residents and visitors to the region. This farm walk is organised through the Farming for the Future project, part of the Nenescape Landscape Partnership, which aims to work with farmers in the Nene Valley to create and restore meadow and wetland habitats and improve water quality.
