Due to the overwhelming response to this course, we have investigated a number of venues to create a second day. This has led to us contacting the sister of one of our students, Lucy de La Pasture, who has a farm in Herefordshire. This should prove to be invaluable, since TB has been the cause of the loss of many of their cattle. It is crucial to work with them before full turnout. We have set the date of March 23rd and this will also coincide with being able to work in the lambing season at their farm.
The farm originally being suggested in Bristol for the July course is a commercial dairy farm, whilst the farm in Herefordshire is an organic cattle and sheep farm.
Those who have already booked onto the Farm CPD in July, will have first choice if they would prefer to attend the CPD in Herefordshire on 23rd March (although we hope to offer a follow-up day in Herefordshire in the summer as well). All students with reserved places will be notified today. If you have not reserved a place on this CPD please contact the office and we can advise as to whether a place becomes available.
