East Kilbride's National Museum of Rural Life is preparing for a bovine-themed weekend when it will host its new, family-friendly MooFest event.
Butter-churning workshops and craft activities will be on offer, alongside the chance to make fresh mozzarella, learn about milk composition and understand the traffic light milking process from, education charity, SmartSTEM. A team from Scotland’s rural college, the SRUC, will teach visitors about cattle anatomy with the help of a cow skeleton.
A special cow-spotter’s trail will stretch from the main museum building up to the attraction’s historic working farm, where visitors can see the Ayrshire dairy herd, the Aberdeen Angus and Highland cattle as well as the rest of the farm animals including hens, pigs and Clydesdale horses.
