Manure

Dale Farm manure

Dale Farm manure is available all year around for at very reasonable prices from our shop, Monday – Friday, 10 – 3pm, alternatively we can deliver.

Our well-rotted manure is delivered to the farm, where we bag it for convenient collection or delivery.

Manure enriches soil with organic matter and gradually releases essential nutrients, including nitrogen and phosphorus. It also improves soil structure and water retention, supporting healthy plant growth.

The people we support, staff and volunteers receive annual manual-handling training. Activities are always supervised by a staff member or volunteer.

We have invested in a new digger to make moving bagged and loose manure safer and easier.

The photo below shows some of the people we support at work.

Brian (pictured below), is one of our staff members. There is no doubt that Brian is ‘king of our muckheap’.

From Customer to Volunteer

Like many of our volunteers, Michelle first visited to buy manure and later joined our team. You are welcome to visit the farm Monday to Friday, between 10am and 2pm. Come to 51 Oldfield Road, follow the route shown below and park on site. Then follow the path beneath the wisteria arch to our main office and shop, where staff can help load manure or other products into your car. If you are interested in volunteering, speak informally with Suanne, who can give you a short tour, or complete our online volunteer form
