Feast @ The Farm

Growing Local CIC



A summary
Learn about each stage of how you get food on the table. Starting the day you’ll be our mini-growers exploring the farm and helping us with tasks around the garden – weeding, planting, watering. After this you’ll be harvesting and picking our gorgeous homegrown produce ready to cook in our new outdoor kitchen. Learn some cooking skills as you help prepare a delicious lunch which we’ll eat together in our picnic area. After lunch get ready for some nature based arts, crafts and games.

About your mentor
Growing Local CIC
Growing Local CIC
Growing Local is a community interest company that encourages and educates communities to grow, cook and eat local food. In the summer of 2023 Growing Local took over a new 19-acre agricultural site, The Southside Farm, on the southern edge of Hereford to establish a veg box scheme, a children’s educational garden and heritage orchards. We work with schools and communities delivering educational programmes and events in sustainable food growing, nature, crafting, cooking and more.

Cancellation policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.
My experience is an educational activity, and the ‘14-day cooling period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
