What We Do
Community Care Farming
Our care farming services focus on human health and wellbeing, notably the many benefits – physical, mental, social and spiritual – that come from working with animals, plants, soil and other people in community.
In idyllic and accessible surroundings, we offer a range of activities with small supervised groups of up to 3 – 4 individuals.
Funded by various parts of the Irish Church, our ground breaking CARE (Care farming for Asylum Seekers, Refugees and the Environment) project is the first of its kind to work with this service user group in Northern Ireland.
We carry out a care farming enrichment and support programme with adults with additional needs referred to Jubilee Farm by the Northern Health and Social Care Trust.
All Care Farming sessions are bookable by contacting our Farm Manger Tim Davies.
(See contact page for email address & phone number).
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
Through our CSA activities we aim to provide good, affordable food in the form of free range meat and seasonal chemical-free vegetables. CSA subscribers will also have the chance to be involved in their food production and get behind-the-scenes access and updates. In this way, we’re cultivating community, developing the first CSA scheme in Northern Ireland, and putting culture back into agriculture.
