New Eco barn

Finally after a long time we have applied for Planning permission for a very much needed Barn. Cold and extremely wet winters have made our work and lives very difficult with only our tiny portacabin for shelter.  Our new barn will be insulated, powered by Solar and enable us to work right through the year making goods  doing much needed jobs for the Farm.  We will be  getting more animals and growing and producing much more food in our purpose built lean-to greenhouse if we get it.   Please support us when you see and hear our fundraising campaign soon to be started.  Thank you.  

Job Vacancies

Volunteering-

We have lots of volunteering jobs available.

On Thursdays working on the land growing food and developing our organic environment.  We work with nature to bring our the best and most creative growth, caring for the planet in small but significant ways. 

If you are interested in supporting our neuro-divergent Farm hands voluntarily there may be opportunities too on Tuesdays and wednesdays.  This involves supporting our farm hands in a range of work from gardening, heavy physical tasks on the farm to building based craft and cooking activities. Its great fun!

Charitable status.  We are at the moment a company limited with guarantee and with charitable aims.  We are changing to become a Charitable Incorporated Organisation which means that we will be accountable to the Charity Commission. and not Companies house! This will simplify our governance and allow us to reach more funding streams.  

Trustees.- We need a few more people to help with the decision making and the development of the Charity.  Are you interested in our work?  Able to give about 4 evenings a year to guide and direct our work? Do you care about the planet and want to do something positive and creative as well as share your skills and learn more? Maybe learn  new experiences to add to your CV or to help with your future? Then please contact us at -greavehousefarmtrust.co.uk for more information.

 There are also opportunities for volunteering in support roles such as administration and finance.  Please get in touch if you feel able to offer help and support, it is always appreciated.
