A big thank you to all the Butser Ancient Farm volunteers, this week and every week! It’s National Volunteers’ Week and organisations all over the country are celebrating their volunteers.Our volunteers come in many different guises. They are the regulars who come every Wednesday to help with physical work around the farm. They are groups who come from local businesses to give some of their time and skills to help with tasks that range from counting Roman mosaic tiles to daubing a roundhouse wall. They come to help with special events, including our major festivals like Beltain, or the Toga Tuesdays for this year’s Roman Summer. They are students, or retired, or people wanting to learn a new skill, meet some friendly people, work outside in our lovely site, or share their love of the past. They are all welcome and very much appreciated.Thank you to all the Butser Ancient Farm volunteers. We couldn’t do it without you!
