Cyrenians Farm

An Organic Farm with a Difference
Cyrenians Farm is a small community enterprise located just outside Edinburgh. As well as growing delicious organic fruit and vegetables and cultivating livestock, the Farm is also home to a community of vulnerable young people, many with backgrounds of homelessness.

Helping People to Grow
Our unique approach to residential care helps young people to develop their skills through training and ongoing support. Over 80% of our young people say that their experience at Cyrenians Farm improved their self-confidence, self-esteem, motivation and ability to manage their own lives.

Make a lasting difference
The residential care service encourages volunteers from all different backgrounds and cultures.  Working alongside our residents is a rewarding challenge.  We also offer practical volunteering opportunities on the farming side.

Team Building
Our farm-based projects provide an excellent opportunity for you and your colleagues to build team working skills whilst getting satisfaction and reward of supporting a much-loved community enterprise.

Donations
As a social enterprise we aim to be self sustaining as soon possible through the provision of training and the selling of produce. In the meantime we still invite donations for a number of items both small and large for example;

£10 would buy us a new chicken and feed it for 3 months.

£40 would provide land based skiils training for one of our trainees for a day.

£150 would add 10 trees to our fledgling orchard.

£1500 would buy a new polytunnel complete with irrigation system.
