Opportunity
Quarterly Volunteer weekends start on Friday and run until the Sunday, 10am – 4pm. Accommodation can be provided for free; meals are also available for a donation.
This group works on bigger projects, past jobs have included building a boardwalk, planting wildflowers, creating an otter holt, hedge laying and tree planting.
Volunteers should be physically able to move around the farm and carry out practical tasks.
Volunteers receive instruction and guidance, but we are unable to provide one-to-one support.
What skills do I need?
Volunteers make Fordhall the welcoming community-owned farm that it is!
Our volunteers come from all walks of life, with different ages, different skills, and different reasons for joining us.
There is something for everyone – whether you are looking to boost your CV, meet new people or learn new skills.
