Mini Farm Coming Soon!

Mini Farm Coming Soon!

April 2023 will see a huge land mark for The Nest Farms - the launch of a pilot project for young people struggling with their mental health. While we are finalising plans for our main farm site, we are launching a mini farm! We are inviting a small group of young people, all of who are struggling with their mental health to come and spend a day a week with us through the summer looking after our small gang of animals and growing some vegetables. The ethos will be the same, the outcomes will be just as impactful, but all done on a smaller scale so we can all learn together.

If you or someone you know who like to come to the mini farm as a young person, or as a volunteer, then please do get in touch by dropping Hannah an email here.
