Greenagers
Our Greenagers programme engages young people aged 14-18 in youth-led activities and social action projects here at the Farm. Sessions are designed and informed by the young people we work with along themes of food growing and cooking, animal care, environmental conservation and rural craft.
Greenagers Club forms part of our free core youth programme with a focus on building connections with the community, enhancing wellbeing, gaining practical skills and knowledge and preparing for further study and careers.
Young people attend on a weekly basis for 2.5 hours, with an experienced Youth Workers facilitating their session.
Greenagers Club was designed by young people and launched in 2021 to enable a progression route for graduating Young Farmers, which facilitates a long term and embedded youth presence at the Farm. Many of our participants joined the Farm when they were 8 and stay for up to 10 years! As such we would rarely have spaces that aren’t filled by our Young Farmers and sadly don’t have capacity to welcome new young people.
If you’re aged 14-18 and want to get involved, you might be interested by one-off livestock work experience placements which run throughout the year. Full details here.
