Make a difference today

We believe that every young person, regardless of their circumstances, should have the opportunity to grow their knowledge, skills, confidence and wellbeing through a visit to our farms.

Every year over 3,000 children and young people from underserved communities are able to connect with nature, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Whether you donate, hold a fundraising event, involve your workplace or take on a challenge, you’re helping more children take home the benefits of being farmers for a week.
