Who we are
About the farm
Our farm near Peterculter, outside Aberdeen, was bought in 1972 by VSA, an Aberdeen social care charity: it is a working farm with 70 acres (about 28 ha) of arable land and a training facility where adults with learning and other additional support needs gain work experience in animal care, horticulture and farming. We welcome visitors all year round, daily from 10am to 4pm, with a farm shop, a seasonal garden centre (herb and tomato plants, perennials, shrubs, hanging baskets, redcurrants), seasonal strawberry picking, an animal viewing paddock with Shetland ponies, donkeys, alpacas, goats and rabbits, a play area and a café run by our partner Blossom.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
