About this Event

A Family of Farms Event

The Family of Farms Gathering will take place at the start of the day, followed by the AGM in the afternoon. The theme this year will be ‘Government Funding to Support Farm Viability’. This session aims to deepen the ongoing conversation around multi-enterprise strategies, farm diversification, and succession planning by exploring how government grants and funding streams can support farm viability. We’ll also examine how funding can enable greater social engagement through educational activities and community connection.

Through farm case studies, peer-to-peer sharing, and expert input, we’ll explore what funding opportunities are available, how to apply, what’s worked well, what hasn’t, and where to seek guidance and support. Whether your farm has extensive experience with grants or you're just starting out, this will be a collaborative space to learn and exchange.

The Annual General Meeting

At the AGM our Directors will present reports of activities and finances to shareholders including information about the organisation’s development and strategy, achievements and future prospects. The AGM is also open to non-members.

The indoor aspects of both the AGM and the Family of Farms Workshop follow will take place as an in-person event.

Farm Walk

Following the AGM and Family of Farms workshop, we will take a guided walk around Huxhams Cross Farm in Devon. This will be an opportunity to explore the multiple enterprises on site, including the agroforestry, mixed low-input livestock systems, market garden, and more – and of course ask the big questions and take inspiration into your own communities of practice.

Food and Refreshments

Lunch will be included on the day and provided by local chefs. We appreciate DONATIONS for the cost of lunch and recommend a minimum donation of £15 for lunch and refreshments (please make a donation on this booking link or on the day in cash)
Thank You

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible and to connecting and learning from one another.
