Regenerative Skills Hub – Free Training Programme

We’re sharing a new opportunity launching in 2026 at Pitchcott Farm in Buckinghamshire.
The Regenerative Skills Hub is a free, hands-on training programme in land stewardship, food growing and ecological restoration. It is designed for people at different starting points and offers flexible ways to take part, including a 3-day residential intensive and in-person training days over time.
Participants learn directly on the land, building practical skills and a grounded understanding of regenerative systems. Places are limited, with priority given to those who may not typically have access to this kind of training.
