About Willow Haven
Willow Haven Care Farm believes that removing people from their daily lives and immersing them in a working farm offers a unique combination of working together with farm animals, producing good food and therapy to act as a catalyst for change. Farm helpers will experience a range of activities, centred around small scale farming, hands on group therapy and individual work with an over-riding family ethos that means we sit together to share a fire, a story, a meal or simply time to relax away from everyday pressures with space to play, and celebrate our successes.
​
Farm helpers can engage with the farm through regular clubs, day visits or residentials. Activities will reflect the seasonal changes of farming with everything from forest schools to animal care or nature nurture to art therapy and where possible includes a daily walk to discover the seasonal delights of the countryside. We are looking to support the Farm Helpers to work on setting up some of our facilities to include a cooking area, fruit & veg and herb gardens, animal areas and walkways, agroforestry, a pond surrounded by a wild flower meadow with habitats for solitary bees, honeybee hives, and a polytunnel.
