Bath City Farm is to use its Facebook page to broadcast live animal feeding from the farm every Saturday morning and keep people in touch with farm life as they stay at home.
The local charity’s buildings, café and toilets will be closed until further notice and all project groups, volunteering, bookings and events have been suspended.
We know that the animals mean so much to our visitors and we wanted to give everyone the chance to see how they are doing. This weekly Facebook Live is a great way to keep in touch with your favourites, whether the goats or pigs, and have a unique insight into the life of the farm.

Andrew Lloyd Webber is to stream a selection of his musicals online for free starting with Donny Osmond in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
The closure everywhere of theatres has led to an unprecedented range of initiatives to get plays and musicals out to people in new ways.
Get the best seats in the house. We’re launching National Theatre at Home to give you access to theatre online.
A selection of much-loved @NTLive shows will be streamed on YouTube every week, free for everyone. https://t.co/eq6uwTKpud #NationalTheatreAtHome pic.twitter.com/OHcyzDXLjp
