Description[]

Fourways farm is a delightful, animated puppet soap opera that introduces young children to basic science through the use of short, amusing stories about life on the farm.

There is always something interesting going on down on Fourways Farm with Davenport the sheep-dog, Brenda the duck, Dudley the pig, Ginger the lazy cat, Martha the cow, Godfrey the horse and the mischievious Rat Pack - Uno, Duo & Trio and it all happens under the watchful eye of Voltaire, the wise weather-cock who presides over events from his rooftop perch.
