What is this place?

Stepney City Farm is a free community farm off Stepney Way in Tower Hamlets, with animals, allotments, a café and a Rural Arts Centre. It describes itself as wheelchair-accessible with ramps and an accessible toilet, and offers limited Blue Badge parking (call ahead). It also runs a bookable ‘Greencare’ programme of tailored community-group sessions, though there's no advertised drop-in SEND or relaxed family session.
