Projects

We are able to support learning in school through talks and hands on activities.

Our volunteers can help you in many different ways, such as ‘on farm visits’ or other outside learning experiences. We also have specifically trained farmer speakers who will happily support projects on food and farming and the countryside within the classroom. This is useful if your class is unable to visit a farm or more usually to give your class some background to a proposed farm visit.

Our volunteer farmers will bring with them many different props to enhance their visit, such as samples of crops or products to games and PowerPoint presentations. However their greatest asset is their lifetime of work and experience on the farm, which can bring the whole topic to life.
