Pigs and crafts as attraction launches festive mornings

Christmas crafting is getting a porcine twist at a Buckinghamshire farm, where visitors can make their own festive decorations before spending an hour with the pigs.

Kew Little Pigs in Old Amersham is hosting a Christmas Craft Club on November 21 and 22, combining handmade Christmas creations with a chance to meet its four-legged residents.

The three-hour sessions include two hours of crafting, with visitors making a 12-inch wreath using different coloured cones, a Christmas card and a decoration for their tree.

There will also be a hot drink and mince pie to help get the festive creativity flowing, followed by an hour with the pigs.

The sessions, which run from 10am to 1pm on both days, are open to anyone aged 16 and over and cost £55 per person.

Olivia Mikhail, owner of Kew Little Pigs, said: “There is something lovely about taking time out of the Christmas rush to make something yourself, especially when you can share the experience with friends.

“We wanted to bring together a morning of festive crafting, a hot drink and mince pie, and the chance to spend time with our wonderful pigs.

“Visitors will have three handmade creations to take home, but we suspect the pigs will be doing their best to steal the show.”

The club offers a chance to get together with friends or meet fellow craft enthusiasts while making decorations to bring out each Christmas.
