Easter Bunny's Big Surprise: Family Farm Adventure at Secret Valley, County Wexford | Farm | Events

On the eastern edge of County Wexford, just outside Clonroche, Secret Valley opens into a sun-bright farm where a seasonal cast of chicks, kids and llamas turn a spring visit into a hands-on mission. Easter Bunny's Big Surprise is a 1–2 hour farm adventure that folds childlike wonder into practical animal care: bottle-feeding baby goats, hand-feeding llamas and alpacas, meeting newly hatched chicks, and finishing a checklist that leads to the Easter Village and a special treat. The experience begins at the entrance hut where families collect a map and a job list from Bunny Helpers. Stations are paced like a mini-eco lesson: scheduled animal talks explain feeding routines and behaviour, the pot-and-sow garden table introduces pollinators and plant care, and woodland tasks send young sleuths across short trails to look for clues and signs. Each completed task is signed off, then you wind toward the Easter Village for a meeting, photo, and a small reward. What makes this event distinct in Wexford is its blend of farmwork and storytelling: animal interactions are supervised, educational, and paced for mixed-age groups, while the tractor-trailer ride back to the café caps the visit with a bit of rural theater. Secret Valley sits amid rolling pastures and hedgerows common to County Wexford, so spring visits include wildflower edges, busy pollinators, and broad views rather than dramatic cliffs or mountains—this is lowland farming country celebrated for seasonal fairs and family outings. Practicalities are straightforward: arrive five minutes early to check in, admission to the park and access to included activities are part of the booking, and groups of any size are welcome. Accessibility is listed as wheelchair accessible but the site includes rough terrain in places—sturdy shoes and a weatherproof layer are smart choices. The event runs rain or shine and follows a no-refund policy within 24 hours of the booking, except in the case of a severe weather warning. For families seeking a short, active, educational outing that still feels celebratory, Easter Bunny's Big Surprise delivers a charming, hands-on springtime detour in County Wexford. Expect a tactile, sensory day: the sweet dust of straw underfoot, the soft nuzzle of a kid seeking its bottle, and the bright brush of breeze through newly planted flower beds. Staff-guided talks are short and practical—how to hold a chick, why goats need structured feed, and how pollinators support the garden—so even restless younger children stay engaged. Bring a small camera for close-up portraits, and allow time after the programmed hour to wander a little along the meadow edge or to sit at the café with a hot drink while children compare checklist stickers. It’s a compact, repeatable tradition that rewards curiosity and hands-on learning. Book early online.
