DAY TRIPS

COME JOIN US ON THE FARM

 

Not able to commit to the full six week course but fancy a taster of farm life? Our day workshops are aimed to get children immediately engaged with our islands farming heritage and experience a day in the life of a farmer.

Our days trips costs £10 per student.

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM A DAY TRIP?

Children will learn how to plant up produce in their own vegetable patch and harvest a variety of different produce to take home. Workshops are catered for different age-groups and abilities and can be altered to meet your classes needs.

Our workshop activities also change in accordance with the seasons! Please give us a call or email if you are interested.
