Join us for this unique opportunity to visit Cobblers Farm in Worcestershire, home of Hannah and Rob Collins. Despite facing challenges and with limited resources, they have successfully built up a thriving farming enterprise from the ground up.

This inspiring couple, both from farming backgrounds, were driven to create a sustainable future for their family. They purchased a 40-acre greenfield site and, through careful planning and determination, established a successful calf-rearing operation and permission for a family home.

Event Highlights

Farm Tour: Explore Cobblers Farm and witness first-hand their innovative calf-rearing facilities.

Gain Rural Planning Insights: Learn about the strategic planning process that led to the development of the farm and successfully securing planning permission for a permanent rural dwelling.

Connect with experts: Engage with Hannah and Rob, alongside experienced planning consultants from The Rural Planning Co. Take this opportunity to discuss your own rural planning and farming challenges.
