Volunteer’s Week, the annual celebration of UK volunteers, is entering its 40th year this June; and Fordhall Organic Farm is sending out an open afternoon invitation for anyone interested in joining their ranks to find out all about volunteer life on the farm on Friday, June 7.
Fordhall’s foundations are in volunteering – from the campaign to save the farm to development in 2006, to the present day, many wonderful individuals have given up their time, and shared valuable skills, to support life on the farm. Recently, tree planting saw over 63 volunteers getting involved in the project to plant over 2000 trees.
Charlotte Hollins, Fordhall Community Land Initiative General Manager, said:"Our volunteers are so valuable to life on the farm – they really do keep us moving along on a day-to-day basis, and many of them bring along their own skills to teach to us! Their contribution, and donation of their time, is something we are endlessly grateful for.
