Deen City Farm

Deen City Farm is a community-run urban farm located in Merton Abbey, South London. Established in 1978, it spans five acres and is home to a variety of animals, including cows, sheep, pigs, goats, and a resident owl named Archimedes. The farm offers visitors the opportunity to interact with these animals, feed them, and learn about farming practices. In addition to the farmyard, the site features a riding school, gardens, a café, and a shop. The farm operates as a registered charity, aiming to improve the quality of life in the local community by providing education on farming, the food cycle, and animal care. Entry to the farm is free, with a suggested donation of £3 per person to support its operations. The farm is open Tuesday to Sunday and Bank Holiday Mondays from 10:00 to 16:30, with the last admission at 16:00. The riding school has varying hours throughout the week, and the café operates from 10:00 to 16:00 on the same days. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll through the farm, participate in animal feeding sessions, and explore the gardens. The farm is accessible by public transport, including bus and tram services, and offers limited parking facilities. For those traveling by car, alternative parking options are available nearby. The farm is committed to being as accessible and welcoming as possible, with step-free access throughout the main visitor areas, including the café, shop, and outdoor spaces.
