We have a 4 bedroom house in Inkpen, surrounded by lots of walks and cycling routes along the wayfarers way leading upto Combe Gibbet a well known historic site and is the highest Chalk hill in the UK. The farming enterprise is mainly sheep, cattle and pigs with a few rare breed chickens and goats to compliment the Care Farm and the new Glamping Site which is a recent diversification on the farm. What we are looking for: No experience is required, just a willingness to learn and help out. We are very happy to collect from the nearby train station. Your schedule: Flexible hours, around 4-5 hours a day, 5 days a week Free time to explore the local area

(No two days are the same and there is always something that needs fixing/finishing on our working Farm).
