Cultivate

We are a social enterprise that operates on numerous sites across Mid Wales and in addition to the land we work on we support a network of sustainable growers who supply our food hub with produce. One of the major projects we are working on is access and ownership of around 55 hectares of Local Authority land and to make use of this through a community consortium. We also own and operate an 150 hectare farm in North Wales called Moelyci.
