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@staging.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@staging.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.

  • 28/02/2023 at 1:58 pm #81404

    Available from March – October 2023

    This is a fantastic role for someone who wants to gain solid growing experience in a well-established market garden. We propagate most of our crops in the greenhouse before transferring to our 4 acres of land, including two large polytunnels. There is ample opportunity to develop a wide range of skills and work with others who are passionate about growing amazing food.

    The trainee grower role is 5 days a week – including some weekend hours. We offer a £60/week stipend plus accommodation in our delightful farmhouse with full board. Come and enjoy our lovely organic communal cooking!

    There is added excitement at the Fold this year because we are converting to a CSA scheme (community supported agriculture). It’s a whole new experience for us, and you can join our farm team to make it a success!

    As you will see on our website, there’s a lot more happening at the Fold as well, so there are additional opportunities to get involved with our events.

    For more information, please contact operations@thefold.org.uk

    To apply please visit the careers page on our website

    Fill out the application form and send it along with a cover email to operations@thefold.org.uk
