RSP Member - Land and Leisure

Help start a new community

Land and Leisure are a cooperative development currently in the works under director Laurence Keeley. Our goal is to develop a community health farm in Herstmonceux. This organic farm ideally will include the following:

  • Seasonal fruit and vegetables
  • Livestock (sheep, cows, chickens)
  • Camp site for weekends & holidays
  • Members marquee
  • Workshops, conferences and events
  • Activities such as fishing, sporting events & children's holiday clubs

We are currently in the early stages of this endeavour and are looking for like-minded individuals who would want to take advantage of this unique opportunity. Any ideas that you can bring to the table are also welcome. Together, we hope to bring a welcoming community farm to our region.
