There will also be a number of trade stands and the opportunity to visit the farm's newest lambs, and a falconry display.

A spokesperson for organisers Shropshire Festivals said: "There will be lots for the whole family to enjoy.

“The spring fair is one of our flagship events, and we love welcoming visitors from the local area and beyond, for a day of fun that celebrates the changing season in our beautiful county.”

The event will run between 10am and 4pm. Tickets cost £3 per person and under-fours go free. To buy tickets and learn more visit fordhallfarm.com.

Proceeds will go towards the farm's education programme, which incorporates free teaching visits to the farm for school groups.
