Abstract
Social Farming in Northern Ireland is in a period of growth. It has benefitted from raised awareness of the concept within the farming and health and social care sectors and also with the general public. There is Social Farming activity on farms but this is not based on a sustainable funding and referral model at a regional level which has meant that some available farms and experienced farmers are not being utilised to provide a Social Farming service.
