We welcome many school groups to The Bug Farm

We can accommodate nursery, primary, secondary and sixth form visits. We are happy to tailor-make your visit depending on your timeframe, group size and interest. Coach parking is available too.

Our most popular Bug Farm Experience includes:

Museum and Zoo Tour

Showcasing the wonderful world of bugs, you will find displays and an array of mind boggling facts about what bugs do for us. We are featured in Twinkl’s Museums Campaign. Twinkl also have a wide variety of museum-related resources on their site

Up Close Session

This session, led by one of The Bug Farm team, consists of a 30-40 minute learning experience about some of our bugs, during which you get to hold and meet a variety of tropical insects

Grub Kitchen Taster Session

We are extremely lucky to be the home of Grub Kitchen: the UK’s first full-time edible insect café/restaurant.
