School Trips

School Trips & Youth groups

Whether you are looking to bring a small group as part of a Youth Development Programme or organising a School Trip we can offer exclusive use of the farm camp with a wide range of educational farm and outdoor activities targeted at young people.

Stays on our Organic Farm are educational retreats creating a deeper understanding and hands on immersion into where your food comes from what it takes to grow food sustainably creating a triple win, less impact on the planet healthier and better for us, and where the animals have the best possible life.

Strong emphasis as a teaching farm on sustainable farming practices, soil regeneration, CO2 reduction, recycling and waste reduction, wormeries, composting, growing your own, organic, free range and permaculture growing practices combined with fun outdoor activities such us herding sheep, camp fires, orienteering, canoeing, foraging and team building activities.

Accommodation in 3 cottages and 6 Safari Glamping Tents. With Gatherings in our two barns for communal teaching and gathering.

We encourage Team Building and leadership skill building for children during our camps and love seeing self belief, determination and confidence growing amongst the kids.
