The Humble by Nature Introduction to Smallholding course does exactly what it says on the tin. Our smallholding expert Liz Shankland will give you a full and fascinating day learning about how to start keeping your own hens, pigs and sheep. You’ll learn how much land you need to keep sheep, what a couple of pigs will do to your field, how to set about looking after poultry for eggs or meat, and what paperwork is involved.
This course is very practical. There’s plenty of hands-on experience with our smallholder animals - big & small - in our specially designed smallholder fields and animal barns on the Humble by Nature farm. Liz Shankland will give you the confidence to take your first step into smallholding. Come and join us!
