SEE OUR EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES FOR 2008

Environmental education, field studies, rural skills training, community development, community arts: a unique environment for studying, relaxing, volunteering, community events and a meeting place with a difference, in the North Pennines of County Durham
The Harehope Quarry Project is located on the edge of the village of Frosterley in Weardale, Co.Durham. We are a workers co-operative offering environmental education, field studies, rural skills training, community development, and community arts. Based in a former limestone quarry in the North Pennines the project presents a unique environment for study, relaxing, volunteering opportunities, community events and a meeting place with a difference.

Harehope Quarry is a multi-faceted project.
Our aim is to practically demonstrate a more sustainable way of living. We promote integrated and sustainable rural development through a range of social, economic and environmental activities.
