Facilitation & Knowledge Sharing

At Farm Wight, we believe that collaborative learning & open dialogue are key to building resilient farm businesses & thriving rural communities. Our work includes:

  • Group Facilitation & Convening: We lead and support a range of farmer & land manager groups across the Island, including the Environmental Farmers Group, the IOW Graziers Group & Wight Rural Hub. These forums provide space for peer-to-peer learning, practical knowledge exchange & collective problem-solving.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: bringing together diverse voices—from farmers and advisers to policymakers & researchers—to address local challenges & explore opportunities. Whether it’s planning for sustainable land use or navigating policy change, we ensure conversations are grounded, inclusive & action-oriented.
  • Family Farm Discussions: we also support intergenerational conversations around the kitchen table. We create a safe, structured space for families to reflect, plan & make decisions together—whether you’re thinking about succession, diversification, or the future direction of your business.

This collaborative approach sits at the heart of our mission to support positive change in Island farming.
