About Us
We have been running May Blossom Farm as a smallholding for six years, raising pigs, sheep and goats. We love the time we spend at the farm. It helps us slow down, connect with nature, and live in the moment - and this supports our mental health and wellbeing. We are passionate about sharing our land, animals and indoor and outdoor spaces to help others flourish.
Hannah - "I have worked as a teacher and Special Educational Needs coordinator. I love spending time with the animals at May Blossom Farm, getting to know their individual characters. I built the vegetable patch at the farm and love working with groups to make soup lunches from our home grown vegetables.
My favourite animal at the farm is Molly the goat."
​
John - "I am a musician and I love building structures for arts events and working with people. I built the barn at May Blossom Farm, and enjoy running music workshops there. I have skills in construction, landscaping and painting and decorating, as well as children's adventure play.
My favourite animal at the farm is our hand-reared sheep Cleo."
