Are you keen to get your hands in the soil?
Want to learn about growing organic food and flowers at scale?
There’s a lot to do at the farm and no experience is necessary so come down and get involved!
What will I do?
It’s physical but satisfying work involving a range of activities but often including:
shovelling compost and woodchip, transplanting, harvesting, weeding and more - all surrounded by beautiful trees, birdsong and other wonderful volunteers!
How does it work?
- Volunteer sessions are on Thursdays.
- The sessions run from 10am- 3.30pm (with an hour's lunch break). You can come for a half-day in the morning if that suits you better.
- No experience is necessary – in fact we very much welcome people who are new to growing.
- Any new volunteers need to attend an induction session before you volunteer with us which happens once a month.
- We’ll provide all tools and equipment and water, but do make sure you bring a water bottle, waterproofs, suntan lotion, warm layers and sturdy shoes.
- We really welcome people from a diversity of backgrounds and walks of life but at this early stage we’re not equipped to work with children / vulnerable adults / those requiring special support, though we very much hope to do so in the future. You must be 18 years or over to volunteer.
I'm keen! What next?
Sign up using one of the form below and we'll send you an email confirming you're in!
If you're a returning volunteer, we now have a separate form to sign up for your volunteering sessions.
