Free Farm Visit Workshop Friendly Farmer Project - Warwickshire

For Farmers within the Central Warwickshire LEADER Area who want to engage with their community or have the local community visit their farm

As part of the Friendly Farmer Project to help establish the relationships between farmers and their local communities, Warwickshire Rural Hub would like to invite farmers from Warwickshire to a range of FREE Farmer Visit workshops. These workshops will allow the farmers to visit other farms which are already successfully engaging with their local community and give the visiting farmers the opportunity and ideas to develop links with their own local communities.
