farm is laid out upon an oval, its periphery marked by a
2m-wide kerb of black paving blocks, in the middle of
which there is a fence 1.2m in height. This enables visi-
tors to reach the meadow easily, while ensuring that
the animals (ducks, a sheep, a goat, a calf, etc.) do not
trample the meadow on the other side of the fence.
The oval is accessible to visitors on one side. This area
is paved and contains two picnic tables.
The building for the animals has a ground plan
measuring 6.0 x 6.0m, and is built on two storeys.
The top storey is used for storing hay and straw.
Half of the ground floor is used as sleeping and
winter quarters for the animals, while the other part
is occupied by fodder storage, a toilet, stairs to the
hay loft, and a space for the volunteers who work
at the farm.61.8a
