Educational access

We have added “educational access” to our Countryside Stewardship Scheme and have been accredited through CEVAS (Countryside Educational Visits Accreditation Scheme) to host farm visits. We need a minimum of 6 people in a group (maximum 40) and are happy to tailor a visit to suit your interests. To date we have hosted visits from Blockley School, Moreton Brownies, The 3 D’s from Draycott, Chipping Campden School, Greenfields Nursery, Evesham College, Stretton on Fosse Village ans Shipston Cubs as well as holding Open Days throughout the year.

If you are interested in learning more about farming and the countryside and would like to know more then please contact Sarah or Simon for more information. Tel: 01608 650394 or send an email
