Did you know? The Rare Breeds Centre is part of a charity called Canterbury Oast Trust (COT). We support adults with learning disabilities and autism to take control of their lives, by providing training, accommodation services and work experience.

Many residents and students learn and even live on-site at the Rare Breeds Centre, so your visit helps us to continue our work. Please Gift Aid your entry ticket as this changes your whole entrance fee to a charitable donation.

Look out for our Art at the Farm, Poulton Wood and horticulture products for sale on-site, hand crafted (or grown) by the people we support. These include beautiful textiles, paintings, ceramics and woodwork. 

Thank you so much for your support, it means everything to us.
