June 15th is Father’s Day and we hope that you will treat your Dad on this special day, we are sure he deserves it. All our own Farmyard Dads are waiting to meet you so why not drag him along for a great day out.

We are running a special promotion this year so if you print off this story and bring it with you your Dad come in for just £1 for the day, and have a free cup of tea and some biscuits too.
