Volunteering is a huge part of FCF. We grow veg on 2 acres of land on the outskirts of Farnham, following agroecological methods.

We need extra hands to keep growing quality veg with as little soil disturbance as possible - we rarely use machinery, but it means lots of hard work!

Volunteers value the opportunity to be outdoors, socialise and learn new skills with us. We are open to individuals, school groups, work experience and supported adults.

What skills do I need?

None needed! We can cater to all abilities and interests. Some volunteers like physical jobs in the field, including composting, bed preparation and building new areas. Others enjoy more relaxed jobs (including seated jobs) like seed sowing, watering and gentle hand weeding.
