  • Visitor Information
Stepney City FarmA farm has been here since 1979 when local residents, schools, churches and community groups were consulted and a small patch of land was secured for the farm's use. The site has been through several incarnations since the 17th century. Worcester house (locally known as King John's Palace) once stood where the cows now graze and you can still see the ruins of the old Sunday school and the Stepney meeting house. Animals on the farm include pigs, goats, sheep and cows as well as ducks, chickens, guinea pigs and ferrets. Formerly known as the Stepping Stones Farm, the 4.2-acre Stepney City Farm is currently going through a process of change with a huge amount of dedication and enthusiasm from the volunteers involved. New projects are springing up all over the place, with a Community Growing Club, Saturday Craft Sessions and open volunteering sessions to name but a few. Volunteers are encouraged to get in touch via www.stepneycityfarm.org.
