You don’t need experience but must be willing to work outdoors in mildly inclement weather including light rain and cold. You will require overalls and footwear suitable for farming tasks.
Horham Dairy and Care Farm is becoming more and more accessible. We have a combination of gravel tracks and grassy paths. As such, there may be some areas that people with limited mobility find it hard to reach. It is always worth checking specific needs prior to trial days.
