About the event
The New Organic Entrepreneurs Programme will bring together training on business skills, mentoring and peer learning, with a goal of rolling out a bigger programme to scale next year.
Grounded in our shared values, it looks to assist as broad and diverse a group of people as possible in building sustainable horticulture businesses It will include support to those working towards organic certification. Our wider goal is to increase the availability of great, locally grown produce through a spirit of cooperation and collaboration.
If you don't already have access to land but aspire to a long term career in organic horticulture we may be able to support in finding a place to grow.
We have a limit of 5 spaces in Northern Ireland for the pilot. Click 'Read More' to see Programme FAQs and hear Andrea Gibbons explain more about the programme
