Video and pictures: Great day had by all down at Minting Park Farm
This was the third year the farm has taken part in the national event organised by Linking Environment And Farming (LEAF) and there was plenty on offer for the whole family to enjoy.
Around 300 people stepped inside the farm gate to take the opportunity to look around the working stock and arable farm.

There were even competitions to guess the weight of the bull and Henry the pig.
Children in particular also spent a long time watching the antics of the piglets.
The award-winning farm shop was kept busy throughout the day, as was the farmhouse kitchen, which opened in November last year.
