General manager Stuart Palmer said: "We hope lots of people will join us for a relaxed and hopefully sunny afternoon on the farm with beautiful views over the countryside.

"Our tractor rides are especially popular with young families, offering a trip around the fields in a hay-filled trailer and a chance to learn a little about what’s grown here."

Visitors can also browse the charity's plant sale, which will offer a range of bedding plants, perennials and vegetables, and there will be a chance to buy  jams and chutney as well as hand-made bird boxes and greetings cards.

The open day also highlights the work of the project’s members.

Mr Palmer said: "The open day is also an opportunity to showcase the hard work of our members who work year-round alongside volunteers and head of horticulture Andy in our allotment garden and polytunnels."

The Boaz Project provides therapeutic day support for adults with mild to moderate learning disabilities.
