We are a mixed organic hill farm with Highland and Hereford cattle, Hill Radnor sheep, Berkshire Pigs, ducks, chickens, alpacas, pigs, and beavers. We manage a nature reserve and are also part of a Stewardship Scheme. We have a straw-bale education center with a composting toilet, where we have school group visits and run courses. We have been organic since 2003, and this has resulted in a farm rich in wildlife, flora, and fauna, providing a sustainable way of living. We have an overwhelming desire: to show what can and should be done to farm for food and the environment together; to use the farm to help children connect with food, farming, and the countryside, and aid children’s learning about where their food comes from; and to use the huge resource to reinforce learning on the farm site in the school curriculum at all the key learning stages.

There is an Eco-cottage, Shepherd Huts, and a Hobley house that we rent out as a holiday let that is run by renewable energy and composting toilets. What we need help with: Tasks for volunteers will be varied, as is our life on a farm. We have woodwork, fencing, feeding, gardening, renovation, maintenance, etc. We would love to receive help taking care of our gardens, polytunel and animals. We have several renovation projects that we will be working on throughout 2026 and would like to host someone with experience in painting or carpentry.

Thank you for inviting for volunteer job Very nice to stay but I don’t have a car so I couldn’t enjoy my times to visit town around here so I recommend must have a car who come to here for volunteer job , 6 hours I worked in a day unlike advertised , I could get fresh vegetables from the farm and food every week so I could cook as I like , 🐑 sheep is very lovely they likes apple, animals care was interesting, you can get fresh eggs 🥚 from 🐓 chickens ,accommodation is very quiet separated from owner house so I could enjoy my times alone , sometimes talking with other visited person was fun 😊 sometimes owner couple shout you with big voice, be careful 😅 Enjoy your stay , thank you
