Church Farm Ardeley is a community interest, not for profit, social enterprise. Established in 2008 to develop enterprises and services to benefit people, enhance wildlife and demonstrate social enterprise can be leveraged to create social benefits and community good. Church Farm is a natural setting for learning programmes, leadership development, implicit team bonding and fun events. 

 

Conferences & Meetings

Clear your head: escape the office for important decisions and business meetings. Our meeting room is a high quality, well equipped venue with audio-visual and computer-aided presentation facilities. Available for breakfast, half day and full day meetings, the converted “Sow Yard” room can be set up theatre style to comfortably seat 70 or can accommodate 40 for round-table discussions.

 

Home Grown Catering

From field to fork, our farm team and chefs produce great meals with passion and compassion. Enjoy home-cooked food made with fresh picked herbs, as well as the best tasting heritage varieties of vegetables and fruit. All of the meat is produced and butchered here, eggs are laid by our hens in the orchard, and vegetables, salads and herbs are freshly harvested from a field 80 yards away. We gather nuts and berries from the woods and hedges and game is available in season.

 

Cabins & Glamping

Located around the farm we have a selection of wooden cabins, each complete with a double bed and a simple wood burning stove. There is also more than enough space to erect a ‘village’ of bell tents for those wishing to sleep under the stars.

 

Events Venue

Church Farm is a natural setting for learning programmes, leadership development, implicit team bonding and fun events. We will work with you to design an event that brings results and doesn’t cost the earth.Events can range from half day seminars to programmes over several days. You may just require the venue, or additional events, activities and support. Food is a big feature and eating together facilitates conversation and relationships. Every delegate will experience a different approach to farming, food and the land while they’re here. 

Indoor events can include business games, or art and craft related activities, while outdoor tasks can be real and linked to food, farming and forestry and tailored to the group.
