At Orchard Therapeutic Farm, we know that learning isn’t confined to a classroom. It happens in the creamery, in the orchard, with the animals, in the kitchen, and even on a reptile bus. It happens while making things, moving your body, and discovering what you’re good at - and maybe even what you love. Our working farm is a place where young people are encouraged to discover who they are and where learning feels real, relevant, and full of purpose.

Set in the heart of nature, our site offers hands-on opportunities in every corner: from the creamery to the orchard, caring for animals, preparing food in the kitchen, or even looking after our reptile bus.

Learners can get stuck in and develop valuable skills in our on-site shop, café, creamery, and orchard — gaining experience that builds confidence, independence, and future pathways into work or further training.
