Plumpton College, The Training Kitchen

The AgriFood Centre is a brand-new facility based within the Plumpton College campus near Lewes. The building, open from early 2023, has been purpose-built to host and connect rural communities and businesses across the South East for training, education, networking, and events. With mainline stations only a short distance away (Haywards Heath 20 min, Lewes 16 min), and free campus car parks where we can host up to 600 delegates at any time, connecting your audience to the college is easy.
