The Bobster visits The Balloon Tree, Yorkshire

Down on the Farm

I love to eat,
so it's a treat,
to have a photo at Balloon Tree Farm.
And I'll say "cheese",
if you give me some please.
and, sure, a sausage wouldn't do any harm.
I could spend all day,
take a roll in the hay,
while the little humans laugh and play.
This day has been good,
I've had lots of fresh food.
Which we bought here at Balloon Tree farm.

The Balloon Tree  is in Gate Helmsley which is around 7 miles from York. The farm provides fresh produce and has a lovely farm shop, which is open to the public. You and your little ones can even spend the day picking your own fruit. What better way to teach them about food, how it grows, and where it's sourced.

Alongside the farm there is a childrens play area, and a large outdoor dining area where you can watch the little ones play while you enjoy a drink or two. Dogs are welcome here (woof!) 5 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾so the whole family can spend the day, or a lovely lunch here. There's also a small section where children can view the animals.

Meals are prepared from produce mostly from the farm, so is obviously fresh, in season, and environmentally friendly. The farm shop has much to offer, all freshly picked, so why not take a bagful or two home. 

And if you're looking to cheer up the garden, you can buy fresh flowers here too.
All in all, it is definitely worth a visit, especially if you have little humans to entertain. Check it out for yourself.
