Requests for work, volunteering or internships

We are currently not recruiting for any roles but please read our newsletters for any announcements. We currently do not offer any volunteer or internship placements directly with the LWA, but keep an eye out in the newsletter or on the forum for any members looking for volunteers or workers.

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

Please take the time to explore our staff page here to see who the most relevant contact for your enquiry is. Our addresses format is firstname.lastname@landworkersalliance.org.uk Please bear in mind we all work part time and have limited capacity to respond to enquiries outside our core areas of work. You can also find information under the About Us header about branch and regional organising, and identity groups within the LWA membership.

    We are approaching our second season at The Three Turnips CSA, GL544JJ and are looking for someone/or a couple to help one day a week in return for accommodation on site in a 2 bed, 2 bath static caravan.
    Work will include:
    – Building wooden propagating benches and additional shelving in the greenhouse
    – Building areas for hardening off seeds
    – Build a packing shed and installing a commercial kitchen for food processing
    – General maintenance on-site
    – Assisting with growing to include seed sowing, transplanting, harvesting, weeding and watering
    – Potential farm work for the right person
    Essential requirements: Maintenance skills and ideally own tools. An interest in regeneratively grown food and farming. A sense of initiative, ability to work alone and a sense of humour.
    Optional extra work: A house in the village is looking for someone to start a no-dig kitchen garden and are looking for general garden maintenance support. This would be paid work and would be up to 3 days a week, to be arranged separately directly with the owners.
    About The Three Turnips
    We provide affordable and nutrient dense vegetables for the local community year-round following no dig methods with a focus on improving soil biology.

    The vegetables we grow and the way in which they are grown support the environment by creating beetle banks, capturing carbon, improving biodiversity through the hedgerows and wild flora patches, providing local jobs and volunteering opportunities and offering an education platform for schools in the local area.

    We have a pop up shop which is open to the public on Saturdays from 10:00 – 14:00 selling our veg, meat from the farm (certified PFLA), honey, wool, jams and preserves, all from the farm and this is a wonderful opportunity to meet and be a part of our local community.

    We love what we do and it’s important that we find someone who shares our ethos.

    For more information, please get in touch with Clive & Lydia or Liberty
