Academic/Research Enquiries

Please look at the Agroecology Research Collaboration to see if it fits your area of research/work.

Membership Support / Advice

Currently the LWA does not have capacity or resources to help individual members or potential members on their specific projects, farms or programmes. We get a lot of requests for individual support and would love to have the time to respond to each request in full. We are fundraising for a new role for somebody to focus on membership support and services as we have identified it is a gap in our offering so please watch this space. Having said that, if your query is critical and urgent please email info@landworkersalliance.org.uk including the word URGENT in the subject header and it will get picked up and we can try our best to help.

Contacting Individual Staff

    -Existing Manager available to support transition as much as needed

    It is half-acre min till market garden with a full organic license. Propagation, access and composting happen outside this area, so it’s actually bigger.

    It currently grows 2 tonnes of mainly leafy veg for box scheme, with 50% content from our own crops, and rest bought in from other growers. Plus currently selling fruit, dairy and other sundries too. Systems all set up to buy produce in.

    Currently supports one full time job, and a part time job during the growing season. Potential to increase this by marketing veg boxes or applying for grants.
