Who we are
We live on Fen End Farm, a 114-acre mixed farm which we converted to organic production a few years ago. We have lots of experience in environmental work including working with local communities to increase recycling and prevent waste, educating schoolchildren and young people on local food issues, and helping to make farming in the UK more sustainable. Each of us has worked in different fields from engineering and community engagement to farming and horticulture.
What we're about
We want to help people find the skills and the confidence to live more sustainably and to love doing it. We believe the best way to achieve this is to learn together, drawing on our experiences to find new ways of meeting the challenges of the modern world.

Our place
Our residential courses are based in our orchard, where we set up a self-contained campsite with composting toilet, outdoor kitchen, campfire and teaching space. ÔIndoorÕ teaching takes place in our yurt, with other teaching in various spots around the farm or around the campfire. Besides the course content, our courses are an opportunity to immerse yourself in outdoor living and to connect with nature, yourself and others.
