Farm Health & Safety
We want your visit to Fordelhill Farm to be both enjoyable and safe. Fordelhill Farm
is a working farm with livestock, it is important during your visit to behave responsibly
and to supervise children on all areas of the farm. Please observe any safety notices around
the farm and also to note the following hygiene advice. Do not enter unauthorised areas of
the farm or farm buildings.
Health Risks
Many farm animals carry germs including cryptosporidia, campylobacter, salmonella
and e-coli. You don't need to remember these names, simply that people can catch
them and suffer stomach pains and diarrhoea. Germs may be present in droppings and
elsewhere on the farm and, unfortunately are most likely to be passed on during Spring
and Summer. Children are always the most vulnerable because they do not appreciate the
need for personal hygiene. They could pick up germs from eating with dirty hands, or
sucking grubby fingers.
Do not hand feed any Pigs, Lambs or Hens unless supervised by Farm Staff
by prior arrangement.
Health precautions you can take:
- Do not eat or drink near animals or until hands have been washed.
- Eat food only in designated "CLEAN" eating areas separate from areas where animals are kept.
- Take care to keep hands and feet away from mouths after touching or handling young lambs or other animals around the farm
- Wash hands as soon as possible under running water after touching animals, and ALWAYS before eating.
- Take notice of signs stressing the importance of washing hands.
- Never drink from taps around the farm unless they are marked "drinking water".
- Never eat or taste animal feed stuffs, raw milk or similar items.
- Young children should be closely supervised to make sure these precautions are observed.
Bottle fed lambs and calves are especially tame and may suck children's fingers, after
which hand washing is necessary.
- Hands should be washed at the end of the visit before leaving the farm, hand
washing tap is available on the drive exiting the farm.
