👍👍 A city farm with a donkey, a pony, chickens, pigs and goats- free admission - a great use of this space, located beside St. Anne’s Park walled garden allotments. They also run sustainability classes! People often mention animals, farm, volunteers, kids,

    St. Anne’s City Farm is a community lead city farm run total by volunteers inside St. Anne’s Park, Raheny, Dublin 5. The farm has weekly tours & classes. It also give the community a chance to work on the farm as a team. To learn everything from animal care to suitability. Unfortunately kids can’t let any animals or come close to animals. Very small and tiny place, wish them all the best and good luck to get more animals. You can spend max 20 min there. As the place are very close to St.Anne’s park so we extend our visit there. Looking forward for workshop and classes for kids. Children can get up close and personal with a wide range of rescue animals, from Vietnamese pot-bellied pigs to miniature ponies, while learning about organic farming and animal care.

    Nice little pleasent farm, attended a "free event" with kids only to be met on way out by very passive aggressive woman bombarding you for money when I explained I had none on me i was then told I could use my card. As I didn't have anything with me I felt extremely uncomfortable and just wanted to leave unfortunately I felt unable to as the woman felt the need to keep at me about how there forced open and not funded had I known u was going to have this issue at a free event I wouldn't have attended.

    This is so lovely to connect with rescued animals and biodiversity so close to the city centre. Wonderful for all ages and run by volunteers.

    Run entirely by volunteers, this farm is coming on leaps and bounds in just a few short months! It officially opens at the end of April 2019 & is currently shortlisted for Google funding which it really deserves. We were lucky enough to be given a little tour by one of the volunteers when we peaked in the gates. Such a lovely place and a great amenity for the community and one which we should all support!

    Great project to give a home for life to these abused and neglected animals. The donkeys are my favourite and thriving in the wonderful care they are receiving!

    This is such a beautiful peaceful place to bring my 3 year old. Kudos to the volunteers, it’s really such a special part of the community and a unique space to visit. Animals are well-kept and the volunteers are always ready to engage with the public and teach the kids.

    visited here today for first ....and last time ...we were both dismayed ...and saddened see animals kept like that ...such small spaces ...lying on hard ground ....what grass there was in one enclosure had been eaten to the roots ....hard to believe place is deemed fit for animals ....whatever about fact that its purely so humans can see them ....pathetic ...

👍 Great place for a walk but parking can be a nightmare. Very easy to get stuck if your not careful. But great pitches and good playground. Amazing skate park, but looks like it's been locked up and closed for months. What a waste.
