Practical guidance for smallholders and those wanting to learn traditional rural skills
Our Agriculture courses equip budding smallholders with hands on experience and the knowledge required to successfully take on farm livestock. Alongside our courses for smallholders, we also offer introductory classes to dry stone walling.
Gain the practical skills and confidence you need
Our short courses will teach you the basics of keeping pigs, goats, cattle, sheep and poultry. You’ll cover legal considerations and develop husbandry techniques, with a strong focus on animal welfare.
Our day courses include a mixture of practical activities on the college farm as well as theory and question and answer sessions where you can get tailored guidance for your particular interests. For all our agriculture courses, you will leave with a certificate of attendance and contacts for future advice and guidance.
