Landscaping - Young Adult Ranger Work Experience at Slades Farm

Landscaping - Young Adult Ranger Work Experience at Slades Farm logo

Are you 16-25 years-old and looking for work experience in an environmental role, something to add to your CV, or a career change to a green job?

The Parks Foundation are delivering free sessions for young adults, teaching green skills in parks across Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole - no prior experience needed. With varied sessions available, develop a range of skills at our different events.

In this session, we will be installing infrastructure within Slades Farm. This could include raised growing beds, groundworks, pathways, signage, and other features to improve the space for people and wildlife. This session will be focussed in the community growing space. Learn to use tools safely and develop landscaping techniques.

This session will be hard work, but rewarding. Please dress appopriately for the weather and wear sturdy footwear.
