Activities on the farm will include taking part in horticulture: cultivating organically (without the use of chemicals) seasonal vegetables, fruits and flowers in order to sell the produce (market or on site) to the local community.

Once the farm is established and running, we are hoping to include some animal care (chickens, alpacas, goats).

We will assess each individual’s needs in order to establish a tailored plan of work for each day. Activities are chosen so they give a real sense of achievement and may be designed to set up more challenging work if suitable to the individual. This is designed to empower individuals, giving them the chance to progress and thrive, all in a safe, nurturing and natural environment.

Although the farm will offer purposeful work, it is intended also to be a place of peace, joy and healing through the beauty of the garden with its flowers, aromatic herbs and physical contact with nature. This interaction has proven to be essential to promote balance and well-being. There will be places to sit and contemplate if the person wishes to.
