A working Chilterns Farm sharing opportunities to learn new things, experience our living countryside and grow in confidence and self-worth. Sheep, cattle, donkeys, goats, hens and bees are all part of our traditional 100Ha mixed livestock and arable farm, together with many wildlife habitats supporting special flora and fauna. We have formed a Community Interest Company and are excited to share an understanding of the links between farming and healthy food production, as well as countryside management to ensure good biodiversity, maintaining species like Barn Owls, Skylarks, Harvest Mice and Pyramidal Orchids. We also provide Care Farming opportunities for very small groups or individuals with special needs to be actively involved in farming and conservation.
