What better way to celebrate the end of the growing season and the launch of Laurelbank Farm than a Welcome Feast!
If you’ve spent much time with me, you’ll know that the reason I grow food, is because I love eating. And what better way to spend a December evening, than coming together with like-minded food-lovers, to enjoy locally-grown and seasonally-inspired dishes, served with a great deal of care and love.

Learn to Brew @ Laurelbank Farm – Saturday 22nd October 2022
This is a course for people who have no homebrewing experience but are interested in giving it a go, or are already brewing from a kit but want to take the next steps towards a “full mash”. You are also very welcome if you like beer and just want to sit back, eat and drink, observe the transformation process of grain to beer and learn a bit about beer & food matching.
VOLUNTEER DAYS: 18TH & 25TH MARCH 2022
Do you want to spend a day at Laurelbank Farm helping us get set up for the growing season ahead?
This spring, we’re looking for volunteers to help plant an edible hedge, set up new vegetable beds in our field, put up a polytunnel, create some propagation benches from old pallets, build some new compost heaps and mulch some young trees. We might even find time to build a new dry stone wall!
