Let's Farm project helping young people with learning disabilities

NFU members Nicola Colenso and farmer Rosie Lee have been inviting young adults to a 100-acre mixed farm at Stocks Hill in Darnhall as part of Let's Farm.

The exciting project gives people a real experience of working on a farm, which Nicola and Rosie believe could be widely beneficial.

Now more than 30 trainee farm rangers attend weekly from all over Cheshire, taking part in farming life, from daily stock duties and caring for the animals, to conservation and environmental work.
