Hi Vicky - welcome to the forum. Just thought we should let you know something important about Burl and his wife - they are absolutely the tops when it comes to alpacas. Do a search for Dunreyth and you will see what we mean.

Hi Burl
I have just joined this forum as I want to learn as much as I can about running a self-financing smallholding before I embark on this 4 year plan!!
Currently Volunteering at 2 City farms in London. I have been at one of them for the past 2 years and am considering applying for a job there (just come up) however this is primarily an open/petting farm filled with politics and I am not sure whether this is the best route toward my own venture.
The other route I am considering is putting out some requests on various farming forums, like this one, for work on other livestock smallholdings around the SE of England.
Do you have any advice/opinions on this to guide me? (I am also quite old).

Hi if Farmersarl is still reading this forum, there is also Help Exchange (HelpX) which is similar to WWOOF but is not limited to organic farms (indeed some of the hosts run B&Bs or hostels rather than farms!).
It is also a (much) cheaper membership and the worldwide option is included (with WWOOF each country has a separate membership fee charged)
Hope this is helpful
