A partnership of FarmStart sites from across the UK have come together under the co-ordination of the Land Workers Alliance to address the need for more agroecological training opportunities. 

There are very few accredited training opportunities in agroecological farming available in the UK, and none that offer practical 'on the farm' training above an NVQ Level 2. As a result, we are working to develop a curriculum for NVQ Level 3 & 4 based on organic horticultural practices and business management skills that can better prepare new agroecological growers for running a successful farming business.
