What to do? We got a programme just for you!

We deliver educational activities for primary school children (aged 4 to 11 years old) and we support adults with learning disabilities in accredited and therapeutic training opportunities.

We also offer apprenticeships, courses, workshops and placements and farm experiences to the youth (11 - 18 years) and adults in general (18 years plus).

Schools & Education Providers

We offer curriculum linked Outdoor Education sessions and  Forest School sessions (level 3 trained leader) for primary aged children, as well as Bespoke Programmes and Alternative Curriculum and Work Experience Placements for youth of all ages including animal care, gardening, cooking, conservation and bushcraft.

If you can't make it to us, we can also come to you with an incubator, a chicken or a consultancy to help you maximise your organisation's outdoor learning experience, or even deliver sessions at your own space.


Children and Youth

The Farm offers a number of opportunities for 11 to 18 year olds including a weekly Youth Club, Holiday and Summer Camps, Tuesday Cafe, Work 2 Learn with Animals Placements, and even Duke of Edinburgh volunteering.


Adults & Volunteer Opportunities

We run numerous sessions throughout the week, mostly engaging people experiencing some kind of disadvantage or marginalsation, though we also have opportunities for those wanting to help support our service users.

Activities include:

  • Gardening and growing opportunities at the Propagation Place
  • Friday Drop-in sessions at Boiling Wells, which involves landscaping, gardening and craft
  • Animal Care sessions, which involves looking after the animals and looking after our infrastructure
  • Cooking for Wellbeing sessions where people prepare and eat a healthy meal together
  • Greenspace Wellbeing Sessions for Refugees and Asylum Seekers

We also host Team Challenge days and corporate volunteering sessions for local businesses and groups.


Supported Farming & Green Care

Sheep with lambs

We provide unique training placements and therapeutic activities in horticulture, gardening and animal care for adults (18+) with learning difficulties or mental health disabilities. Our trainees manage the community garden, harvesting vegetables to sell to the cafe and ensure that our animals and farm site are well catered for.


Apprenticeships

The Propagation Place Apprenticeship, in association with Bridgewater and Taunton College, is a fantastic opportunity for people living in central Bristol to explore a career in horticulture, sustainable farming and land-management, whilst gaining transferable skills and experience through working in a thriving community business in a charitable setting.
