Strategy
We bring groups together to celebrate and learn through agroecology and participatory experiences embedded in nature. Our aim is to equip people with the skills and opportunities necessary to live sustainably, healthily and happily – for the benefit of the land, our communities, and the ecosystems of which we are a vital part.
Through providing volunteering opportunities, learning experiences, creative workshops, community gatherings, exchanges, and skills days, The Blackthorne Trust seeks to:
generating a networked agroecological food system for the sustenance of all. |
