Open Farm Day: Jersey Zoo

The Sustainable Cooperative invites you to meet and engage with some of the island’s most exciting growers and producers. All of our farmers share an interest in regenerative and organic farming practices, nurturing local ecological habitats and protecting natural resources. A tour of each farm is followed by some delicious food, prepared with ingredients grown or produced on the site.

Jersey Zoo Farm

At Jersey Zoo a team of 10 grow over 60 types of fruit and vegetable, to meet the needs of the endangered animals in the zoo. These include leafy vegetables such as chicory, lettuce and kale, alongside more unusual varieties, such as yacon, prickly pear, goji berries and guava. Produce is grown using organic farming principles and zoo poo compost. Find out more about one if the island's most unique farms!

SCOOP Open Farm Days

Our Open Farm Days are aimed at those interested or actively involved in sustainable regenerative farming practices and local food systems. They look to create a network of support among existing growers and those who might be considering a farming future, while also connecting local producers with consumers, to foster a greater understanding and appreciation towards the work local farmers do for the community.

Our Open Farm Days are supported by Farm Jersey and are open to all. Please let us know if you have any questions regarding accessibility. Directions to the site will be sent by email once you have reserved your space.
