Are you looking for a new opportunity in regenerative farming? We are
expanding our team as we transition to become an organic, regenerative farming
enterprise. This is a progressive, exciting time for the farm and the team. We aim
to cultivate a farming system that not only produces nutrient dense food, but also
benefits biodiversity, the soil and the landscape alike.

The Farm
Dalhanna is located in the picturesque Glen Afton, where we operate a largely
pasture fed system with a breeding herd of 70 cattle and 800 breeding ewes. We
operate a regenerative grazing model, rotating our stock over the hill land in a bid
to improve the soil and sward ecosystems. We are in the process of planting
more native trees and hedges to provide shelter, a mix of habitats and boost
biodiversity. In addition, since 2022, we have been establishing a small,
organically grown, tea garden with around 5,000 plants and are members of Tea
Scotland.

The Role
The role is full time with rotational weekend work. We are looking for a dynamic
person with a passion for regenerative farming. Responsibilities include, but are
not limited to:
 Daily livestock stewardship.
 Setting up and relocating portable electric fencing and water infrastructure.
 Operation and maintenance of farm machinery.
 Maintenance of fencing/other farm infrastructure.
 Contributing to seasonal farm activities: lambing, calving, hay making, tea
plucking, tree planting.
 Regular monitoring of soils, swards and habitats on the farm.
 Working with the tea growing team and tending to the plants when
necessary.

The Ideal Candidate Would Have:
 Experience in daily management of livestock, preferably in a regenerative
system.
 Knowledge of regenerative and agroforestry farming practices.
 Practical skills for maintenance and infrastructure work.
 The experience/training to operate farm machinery.
 A strong work ethic and willingness to learn new skills.
 The ability to work effectively in a team and individually.
 IT proficiency
 A UK driving license.

The Work Package:
This is an opportunity to work on a diverse farm with fantastic growth potential, at
an exciting phase in its evolution. The role comes with:
 A competitive salary ranging between £26,000/annum and £30,000/annum
depending on experience.
 Accommodation provided (rent free) – a newly refurbished, centrally heated
attractive 3 bed cottage near local amenities (primary school and shops).
