Visitors to Lower Drayton Farm in Penkridge can now enjoy a colourful daffodil walk, while drivers passing between junctions 12 and 13 of the M6 motorway may spot the bright yellow message from the road.

The display was created using around 50,000 bulbs planted across the farm’s fields, adding to an attraction that has quickly become a seasonal highlight.

Pictured amongst the daffodils are staff members Bex Holden, Amy Gledhill, Marley Dowding and Maddison Grainger.
