Women In Wellies

The Women In Wellies project will create opportunities for women in farming, agriculture, and horticulture to come together, meet socially, and develop peer support relationships while also creating opportunities for LRSN to provide health and wellbeing support. The sessions will be led by one of the LRSN nurses, who will offer health screening checks alongside a focus on delivering health information, awareness raising and supporting improved wellbeing. 

Come along to one of the following Women In Wellies events, we'd love to see you there...

20th January - Inspirational women in agriculture and farm diversification 9.30am-12.30pm The Pink Pig, Holme Lane, Scunthorpe

Sally and Anna Jackson, mother and daughter combination from The Pink Pig in Scunthorpe show us inside their world.  The working farm has been in the Jackson family for 100 years, diversifying into a farm shop and cafe in 2001 and further developing into a farm attraction from 2005 which now includes indoor and outdoor play, an animal trail, imaginary play, two cafes and a wedding business onsite. The working farm, run by Sally's husband Andrew and Anna, has been on a regenerative journey for the last ten years. Sally and Anna will share a few of the highs and lows of our working journey and will follow with a tour of the Farm Park. Click here to book
