Little Fant Farm

General information

Little Fant Farm is a hidden heritage cottage farm, set within the scenic Medway Valley Fruit Orchards, on the Western side of Maidstone, Kent.
​
We are a small working farm, of 16 Acres and our aim is to produce as much food from the farm as we can, which we sell or cook with, all available to buy from us when we are open on every Sunday, 11:30am - 2:30pm.
Sundays at the farm make a great day out for families, where you can walk around the farm, see our animals & Kitchen Garden and relax in our Tea Barn paddock with a nice cup of tea and farm made cakes and savoury treats. We probably have the best Sausage Rolls ever!

If we are unable to grow or rear the farm animals for food ourselve,s then we try our very best to source food which is produced locally buying directly from the farmer for the FARM TO TABLE freshness, taste and quality.

The farm consists of Pear & Plum Orchards, Chickens, Ducks, Geese, Pigs (from Spring to late Autumn), " Goats which are having Kids in April and 2 Young Sheep.

We have also adopted 2 Shetland Ponies, Pumpkin & Orlando from the Equine Rescue Charity, Pukka Ponies, based in East Farleigh, Maidstone.

We have 4 Acres of Pear Ocrhard, and we offer you the great opportunity of renting a Pear Tree of your own, details can found on our website and through the facebook store.

We take some of our Pears to the Juicers to make our Farm Pear Juice which we sell in the Tea Barn, offer PYO Pears at the end of September when the fruit is ready.

There is an acre of Plum trees, which give us delightful Plums in the Summer.

All our fruit is spread organically to help with pest control.

Our other farm fields have Wild Meadow Fields, which we cut for hay and provide a great area for the natural wildlife, along with 3 Acres of farm land to grow Pumpkins and open up over Halloween time for PYO Pumkins.

Other events are held throughout the year and school holidays, please check our facebook events page or website for further details. New for this year is a monthly farmers market, which will be held on the 2nd Sunday of the month.

Entrance is off Farleigh Lane, Maidstone or the surrounding Public Footpaths.

We would like to politely ask you not to bring your Picnics onto the farm, thank you

Dogs are allowed on the farm, as long as they are kept on a very tight lead.
