Travel Diary Ambewela Farm and return to Polonnaruwa (Day 5)






The Ambewala, New Zealand, Farm

The ticket prices are remarkably lame for an establishment that has so much farming methods to teach. The staff are friendly and the smaller children as well as the adults get a chance to feed and touch a few animals. Although not a soul would ask anything about the animals but walk through as if at the Zoo.

Free Range Pens

The 1st stop is the Goat Pen. Brought down from Denmark the pure white goats live in a shed and separated by size and age. There were 4 new born kids and about two dozen smaller kids.
Also in free range pens they house Heifers and rabbit bred for meat and as pets.

The Gouda cheese is processed in the premises and the machines are large and impressionable. As are the milking units which start operating at 6m once all the cows are brought back in to their shed.
