Help Us Grow The Countryside Kitchen

Green Growth Award

Make a donation towards the work of The Countryside Kitchen

At The Countryside Kitchen, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to understand where their food comes from and feel connected to the land that produces it.


From our farm in Northamptonshire, we welcome children, families, schools and community groups to take part in hands-on experiences that bring food to life. Through our Grow, Cook, Eat workshops, people learn how food is grown, how to prepare simple nutritious meals, and why farming and the countryside matter to us all.


For many of the children who visit, it is their first time on a farm. They see crops growing in the soil, harvest fresh ingredients from the garden, and cook food from scratch. These moments spark curiosity, confidence and a deeper understanding of food, farming and the environment.


But delivering these experiences is not easy.


Despite the clear benefits of outdoor learning and food education, funding for farm visits has reduced significantly. As a small not-for-profit initiative, we work hard to secure grants, sponsorship and partnerships to keep our sessions accessible and affordable for schools and community groups.


This is where your support can make a real difference.


If you would like to support our work, you can make a donation here:

Every contribution helps us to:

  • Welcome more children and community groups to the farm
  • Maintain our kitchen garden and learning spaces
  • Provide hands-on food and farming education
  • Support wellbeing and rural community initiatives
  • Ensure that cost is not a barrier for those who would benefit most


Even small donations help us continue creating meaningful experiences that inspire people to reconnect with food, nature and the countryside.


The Countryside Kitchen is about more than cooking. It is about building knowledge, confidence and community through food and farming.


With your support, we can continue to grow something truly special.



Thank you for being part of the journey.
