Starting with care farming course (online)

Care farming is the therapeutic use of farming practices. It's a powerful mix of nature, being part of a group and meaningful farming-related activity. 

If you're interested in setting up a care farm or offering green care services, start here with this introductory course. It costs £30 and is delivered by our partners Thrive. It's online so you can access the course at any time. 

The course includes:

  • An introduction to care farming and how it fits within nature-based interventions
  • What to consider when setting up a care farming site
  • The needs of service users
  • Information about quality assurance with the Social Farms and Gardens Green Care Quality Mark
