Volunteer

Do you have a little spare time and enjoy working outdoors?

Like every charity, we need enthusiastic volunteers!

The staff team and farm helpers are supported by a fabulous group of volunteers who bring their patience, reliability and positive attitude to the farm every day. Volunteers work directly with our Farm Helpers providing support and motivation to enable them to deliver the tasks required of them. The volunteers also deliver key projects around the farm which, without their input, would simply not get done.

Our volunteers are true heroes and one of our greatest assets.

Join our once-a-month working parties

For those who wish to volunteer occasionally, once a month from spring to autumn we welcome a group of volunteers to undertake various jobs around the farm for a few hours. Jobs can include weeding, planting, mowing the grass in the orchard, building, mending, fixing, painting, picking fruit, tidying up – and other general maintenance.

To enquire about our volunteering opportunities, please contact Helen Wilson, our volunteer coordinator via the form below. 

The great outdoors brings so many benefits to mental and physical health.
