A farm in Colliers Wood has scooped the title of best in London for the second year running at a festival of city farming and community gardening.

Volunteers from Deen City Farm beat their nearest rivals Surrey Docks and attributed their victory to great teamwork and animal handling skills.

The annual event was held at Capel Manor in Kent on September 17. Deen City’s 14 representatives, one just 10-years-old, were awarded seven 1st places, four 2nd places and two 3rd places giving them 32 points overall - four points more than their own winning total last year. They also triumphed in the quiz but lost out in the tug-of-war, finishing second. To plan a trip to meet their prize winning animals, visit deencityfarm.co.uk
