No two days in The Orchard are the same!
​​​​As part of the day farming team, a typical day involves driving the group to farms, community gardens, or various areas across the Northumbrian countryside to prepare for the day ahead!
​
On our gardening and farming days, the group is hosted by members of the community in private farms and gardens where they can help out. Activities can include land based skills, horticulture, environmental work and animal care.​
