If you click a link with an * to go through to a provider, we may get paid. This usually only happens if you get a product from it. This is what funds our team of journalists, and keeps us free to use. Yet there are two crucial things you need to know about this.
- This never impacts our editorial recommendations – if it's in, it's in there because we independently rate it best.
- You'll always get as good a deal (or better) than if you went direct.

Open Farm Sunday free entry to 90+ farms
Including socially distanced walks, machinery displays and tours. Excludes NI
ExpiredThe LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) Open Farm Sunday event is back after being closed last year due to the pandemic. So get your wellies ready, round-up your herd and get moo-ving because this Sun 27 Jun, over 100 farms re-open their gates.
This year due to Covid restrictions events are smaller and you need to pre-book. To find out if your local farm is participating, use this Farm Finder – it lists all the info for each farm's event, including opening times and how to book your place. Spaces may be limited, so don't be sheepish.
LEAF has told us there won't be as many activities taking place this year, but instead there will be the following:
- Machinery displays – some farmers will invite local vintage tractor clubs to put on a display
- Self-guided walks – each farm is different, but some will have birding and wildflower walks
- Farm tours – a farmer or host will give you a group talk and tour of their farm, with some lasting up to 1.5 hours
Each farm is unique with different farm activities, different wildlife, different landscapes etc, so it might be worth taking a look at the event and farm descriptions to see what's available. For example, we spotted a milking demonstration at a farm in Norfolk, sheep shearing and sheepdog demonstrations in Lancashire, and meeting Highland cows in Stirlingshire.
If there isn’t a farm near you to visit, take a look at the 'Scavenger Hunt' activity to keep the family entertained on a local walk. You can also download the 'Countryside Code' for guidance on how to respect the countryside and those who manage the land whilst you're trotting around.
Out of the 104 farms included, 95 have free entry – six of which have said there will be fees for some activities including £1 tractor and trailer rides. LEAF has told us nine farms will be charging an entrance fee this year – see the list of prices for each farm.
If no entrance fee is mentioned on the website, it shouldn't be charging, although it's best to check with the farm before you trot on down.

Use the Money Mantras
Before spending, use Martin’s Mantras. If you answer 'NO' to any, then don't buy!
Then ask:
- Do I need it?
- Can I afford it?
- Have you checked prices elsewhere?
Then ask:
- Will I use it?
- Is it worth it?
Free protection for all shopping!
There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
What the * means above
If a link has an * by it, that means it is an affiliated link and therefore it helps MoneySavingExpert stay free to use, as it is tracked to us. If you go through it, it can sometimes result in a payment or benefit to the site. It's worth noting this means the third party used may be named on any credit agreements.
You shouldn’t notice any difference and the link will never negatively impact the product. Plus the editorial line (the things we write) is NEVER impacted by these links. We aim to look at all available products. If it isn't possible to get an affiliate link for the top deal, it is still included in exactly the same way, just with a non-paying link.
