Future Farmers

Farmers are looking for more workers, so if fancy ditching the laptop and getting your hands dirty then read on.. We will match you up with a farming business that is looking for help. You will spend the day learning how the farm works and getting involved. We will cover the cost of your travel to and from the farm and you will be provided with lunch. You will need to be prepared to work a full day standing and of course to get muddy! The date will be determined by the farm to fit in with suitable work. You probably won't get to drive a tractor; just to avoid any disappointment.

To apply for one of a limited number of places please email [email protected] with 'Future Farmer' as the subject of your email and tell us:

- Your name
- Your post code (to help us match you to your nearest suitable farm)
- Type of farming that most interests you (e.g. fruit, vegetable, livestock, dairy etc.)
- If you have plans for a rural food business of your own and are looking for premises
or land to farm then let us know.
