Education & Support
Whole Health Agriculture offers farmers a range of innovative educational resources, courses, workshops, and webinars designed to support farmers to adopt sustainable, health-focused practices.
We also offer membership services that provide ongoing learning opportunities, networking, and resources for farmers at all stages of their journey.
Our education and training initiatives are gaining significant recognition both within the UK and internationally. Our courses are rapidly growing in number, and we’ve been invited to deliver training sessions to farmers and vets in countries such as Norway, Namibia, and South Africa. We are also proud to have a continued partnership with the Irish government’s National Organic Training Skillnet, who actively promote our courses.
In 2024, we secured a DEFRA-funded grant through the “Farming in Protected Landscapes Scheme,” enabling us to train 15 farmers in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This marks a significant milestone as the first-ever UK government-funded homeopathic training initiative for farmers.

Learning Centre
The Whole Health Agriculture Learning Centre provides evidence-informed education and resources to support farmers in building healthier, more resilient farms and livestock systems. Our focus is on fostering natural health and vitality, reducing reliance on antibiotics and synthetic inputs, and promoting long-term sustainability in farming.
All training and support services, including a wide variety of courses and webinars, are developed and delivered by a multidisciplinary team of experienced professionals, including veterinarians, farmers, and other experts. Programmes are designed to offer practical, applicable approaches and strategies suitable for a range of farming systems. By supporting improvements in animal health, resilience, productivity, biodiversity, and cost efficiency, our work encourages a shift towards proactive, prevention-focused farm management.
Livestock Health Advisors
At Whole Health Agriculture, we emphasise a preventative approach to livestock health using a holistic toolkit of nosodes, homeopathic remedies, and natural supplements to enhance livestock resilience and immunity.
Our Livestock Health Advisors, all trained in this preventative system, offer practical advice and guidance to farmers looking to elevate their livestock health. All advisors are experienced farmers who have undergone intensive training and assessment, overseen by our Head of Livestock Health Programmes, veterinary surgeon Chris Aukland.
Note: WHAg Advisors are educational and advisory in nature and are focused on guiding farmers to achieve their health goals. They do not diagnose or treat animals; this remains the responsibility of the veterinarian.

Farm Support Groups
Thanks to funding from DEFRA’s Farming in Protected Landscapes Scheme we trained farmers in one of the UK’s most beautiful Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The response was so positive that the group asked to keep learning together — and we agreed. WHAg is now funding their continued development, reinforcing our commitment to supporting farmers in protected landscapes who are embracing holistic approaches to improve the health of their land, animals, and ecosystems.
