About This Experience

Whether you're dreaming of your own smallholding, have just taken on land, or simply want an honest picture of what it involves before you commit, this day gives you a real, hands-on experience without the rose-tinted filter. You'll meet all the animals, learn from our wins (and our losses), sit down to a proper farm lunch, and leave with printed notes, a seasonal hamper and a much clearer idea of what you're actually taking on. Numbers strictly limited to six people.
