Visit the People’s Museum of Heeley as part of Heritage Open Days 2023 to discover the story of one of the UK's first city farms.
Heeley City Farm's story is one of community activism, resilience, mutual support, and a huge number of people – volunteering, working and learning together.
Meet the farm's Community Heritage Team. Discover a community archive filled with photos and stories about the farm and about the Heeley area over the last 800 years. Find out how the Heeley Tenants and Residents Association protested the proposed Heeley Bypass and helped to found the farm on the site in 1981.
Did you ever volunteer at Heeley Farm? The team are keen to collect your stories and memories and identify their photos.
The Heritage Open Day event is part of the farm's Autumn Celebration – with chance to meet the animals, eat wonderful food, and join in heritage crafts and family activities.
No booking required.
