WHEN CAN YOU DO IT?

The programme starts in February and finishes in 44 weeks. Usually this will be
February to December.

You can go home at weekends, still play sport although there may be some extra
busy times on farm when you may have to help out a bit longer.

There will be two one week breaks from course during the year – usually when
things are not so busy on farm!
