Village Green Fitness
Sam Heap is the face behind Village Green Fitness. Her passion for mental health, well-being and all things health and fitness led her to refocus her career a few years ago when she became a personal trainer. Sam launched her outdoor-based fitness classes at the farm in 2021 and continues to provide classes for all abilities; focusing on strength, cardio and flexibility training.
Sam’s aim with her classes is to offer a different way to access exercise, providing opportunities for everyone, even those who aren’t feeling ready to visit a gym. Her farm-based, Saturday morning bootcamp sessions are held outdoors in our fields throughout the year!

The Bee Farmer
David has had a keen interest in bees since it became a hobby in his 20’s. A life change, a decade ago, led to bee keeping becoming David’s occupation and he is now one of the few full time professional bee farmers in the UK.
David has a wealth of experience in bee keeping and offers talks, workshops and educational packages for a range of audiences. He also offers bee keeping experiences here on the farm. You can visit the bee hives, learn about bees and handle the bees, if you wish! The Bee Farmer’s honey can also be bought in our farm shop.
If you would like more information about David and his bee keeping or would like to book an experience, visit or talk; please visit https://www.thebeefarmer.co.uk
