22nd October 2023, 1pm – 5pm, All Welcome

Harvest is one of the best times on the farm. We’re inviting you all along to join us in craft workshops (pumpkin carving and autumn crown making), warm drinks (mulled apple juice, cider & more), fireside storytelling and more!

We’re also using this opportunity to collect goods for the Waterloo Foodbank who are preparing to support the most vulnerable in our community through Winter.

Our pumpkin carving workshops are all full up but click the link below to book your place in the candle making workshops run by bees and refugees, there’s no need to register to attend the event in general.

We’ll be updating this page as we lock in our plans but for now get the date in your diary!

It’s free to attend, though there is a small cost associated with the pumpkin carving workshops. Invite all your friends and join us for the most wholesome event this side of your Nan’s crochet club!

The Waterloo Foodbank are Currently asking for the following, any of them would be great donations at the Festival:

Our next open volunteering session will be the 2nd of April. Come along to meet our new lambs, help keep those spring bulbs coming and get the beds ready for summer planting.

We’ve got wellies to spare for April showers, but if it’s looking grey bring your own raincoat. Why not bring a sunhat as well? You never know in London…

We are continuing to operate our COVID aware model of volunteer days so please make sure you read the information below before you sign up.

We have a limited capacity for volunteers at these days, so you’ll need to register here: https://forms.gle/4FCPNJgYDUcdPmdu7 for a place.

We’ll then confirm the place and send you some details on our COVID aware measures. If you have any questions please email us at farm@oasiswaterloo.org.

In line with current Government advice Oasis Farm Waterloo has currently suspended our events programme of family days, volunteer days and one-off events including the upcoming Circus Spectacular on the farm. We’ll be updating this page as we know more and are aiming to get you all some farm time again as soon as it’s safe.

However, we realise that in a time where things are uncertain and we need to be physically distant from each other, this is exactly the time where we need community, where we need to connect with people and find some hope, some chink of light in unsettling times.

So the farm might be pausing activities but Oasis Hub Waterloo is not going away; we think that instead of social distancing we should be practising physical distancing – we’ll be staying in touch via social media, WhatsApp, and soon we’re going to launch some online initiatives offering a range of practical ways in which we can continue to stay in touch, keep healthy, and look after our wellbeing.

The Oasis Farm Team.

Oasis Farm Waterloo needs you! August is a busy time, there’s things to pick, things to plant and ALWAYS things to water! So you’re invited to join the team on August 3rd, from 11am to 3pm.

We are an urban farm and community resource in Waterloo, a hidden gem just moments from the Southbank. Since 2015, we have been transforming a derelict wasteland into a beautiful, thriving space that works to transform children’s lives through farming, family and therapy.

We are looking for some volunteers to help keep our farm animals, flowers and vegetables happy and healthy, and help us carry on doing our amazing work with young people.If you like the outdoors, working with animals, plants or young people we’d love to welcome you to our team!

Drop into one of our monthly Saturday volunteering days, and work up a sweat turning compost, cleaning our buildings and mucking out animals. Lunch provided, no need to book. New & experienced volunteers welcome, 80% chance of piglets.
