Tucked away in the Bilton Grange area of East Hull, East Hull Community Farm is a vibrant 8-acre working urban farm and registered charity that has served the local area for over 30 years.
Completely free to enter, the farm operates primarily as an educational training centre for adults with learning disabilities while offering inner-city families a welcoming space to meet farm animals, feed poultry, and buy fresh, sustainably grown produce.

East Hull Community Farm offers an accessible, friendly atmosphere across its compact site:

- Small Animal Barn: Visit the undercover housing area to see rabbits and guinea pigs up close.
- Farm Produce Shop: Buy fresh free-range eggs, seasonal vegetables, plants, and farm-raised meats directly from the farm shop, with sales going back into supporting the charity.
- Community Agriculture & Training: See the working market gardens and poly-tunnels where trainees gain valuable skills in horticulture and animal care.
