Care Farming

Care farming is a therapeutic approach that integrates farming activities with health and social care. It involves the use of agricultural lands and practices to support individuals facing mental health issues, disabilities, or social challenges. By engaging in farming tasks, participants learn new skills, improve their well-being, and build social connections. Care farms provide a supportive environment where people can experience nature, work collaboratively, and gain a sense of accomplishment. This practice benefits both the individuals involved and the wider community by promoting mental health and social integration.
