<li>Children’s activities – including Forest School, vegetable growing and theatre workshops;

<li>School visits – primary and secondary;

Why learn with us?<ul>
<li>The Farm is a real-life example of community-owned organic agriculture;

<li>Specialists in particular areas of expertise lead our workshops and visits, be they our own staff or carefully-selected tutors;

<li>Learning takes place in the setting of a working farm, so it is easier to see how what you learn might be applied in the real world;

<li>We have a purpose-built yurt for the indoor elements of our workshops and visits; there are also toilets, hand-wash, and tea and coffee-making facilities;
