I’ve absolutely loved working alongside Portia and Jubilee Farm on their website redesign! Check out their amazing work and story at www.jubilee.coop
The National Lottery Heritage Fund Northern Ireland funded a 3 year role for our Marketing & Communications Manager.
The role was to communicate who & what Jubilee Farm is, a final piece of work is a revamped website.
We encourage you to read & enjoy the full story of at www.jubilee.coop
Thanks to Ian McKenzie Creative for the support throughout the redesign process.
The final few weeks of Portia's role approaches & when asked what was the most enjoyable thing, she said, "that community can flourish when we all contribute".
We hope that the role has met its objectives and helped you see, hear & understand Jubilee Farm.
Especially if you have supported it or experienced it. Thank you.
As Portia departs her role in the coming weeks, we can confirm she has developed new skills, made further commitment to enhance her own career & employment opportunities.
An unexpected bonus is that Portia has confirmed everyone should take opportunity to connect with their wider community, farming, biodiversity or a hand in producing food. Even better, do all of these in one place!
Never mind the Marketing, when Portia started she had never lifted a hen, now she can carry one and catch another at the same time.
She confirms community supported agriculture is required for community food fairness, health & satisfaction.
Farming is hard work but seems to be an essential life skill we all must embrace or support.
A sheep called Marilyn knows her voice from the farm gate.
She witnessed the birth of piglets & equal distress at the natural death of farm animals.
Not a name can be remembered, but she knows more now about rare snails, bees, plants, moths and birds than her entire lifetime before 2022.
John O'Donohue ...We live such separate & often quite removed lives. Yet behind all this seeming separation a deeper unity anchors everything... When we come together in compassion & generosity, this hidden belonging begins to come alive between us.
Community highlights the importance of both individual depth & connection.... by cultivating self-awareness, practicing compassion, & nurturing genuine relationships, we can find our place within a larger community & experience the profound joy of belonging.
