Farmer Time, a trailblazing initiative designed to teach young people about agriculture and the farm-to-fork process, is delighted to announce its new status as an independent charity. This development follows a fruitful partnership between Village Farm and LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) and has been officially endorsed by the UK government.

Becoming an independent charity marks a significant step in Farmer Time’s mission to inspire the next generation and highlight the critical role of farming in modern life.

Launched by Tom Martin on his family farm in England, Farmer Time bridges the gap between classrooms and farms using digital platforms like Zoom and Skype. Children engage directly with their matched farmers, asking questions and gaining real-time insights into the daily realities of farming. In a 2024 survey, 100% of participating teachers and farmers reported enjoying the programme, demonstrating its powerful educational impact.

“Every single call. The way I make the children’s day by showing them the farm, that they may never set foot on one in their life…” said a participating farmer, highlighting the programme’s ability to provide unforgettable experiences.

In addition to its new charity status, Farmer Time is welcoming two distinguished board members: Dr. John Viney and Dr. Kirstie McAdoo.

Dr. John Viney, founder of Leaderverse and a seasoned innovator, brings his experience of building high-performing organisations to Farmer Time. He aims to expand the programme’s reach, helping young people gain a better understanding of farming, sustainability, and the future of food.

Dr. Kirstie McAdoo, an expert in agricultural research and education, has spent over 15 years championing sustainable food systems. As an Adjunct Professor at University College Dublin, she lectures on sustainable food practices and works with the Department of Agriculture to support women in farming. Dr. McAdoo is also involved in reshaping the Ag Science curriculum for secondary schools.

Farmer Time has already demonstrated its value in education, with 62% of classrooms discussing ‘Healthy Eating,’ 48% exploring ‘Careers,’ and 88% engaging with topics around ‘the Environment.’ A teacher shared: “Building a relationship with our paired farmer and seeing the changes the farm undergoes across the year,” illustrating the deep connections formed through the programme.

As Farmer Time begins this new chapter, it is committed to expanding its reach and continuing to engage, inspire, and educate young people about farming. With dedicated farmers and educators driving its efforts, Farmer Time is ready to make an even greater difference in classrooms across the UK.
