You found a flyer, so a farm is taking shape near you.

a community farm, coming to your area

Help bring a farm to your doorstep.

A farm owned by the people it feeds is in the making in your area. It only rises if enough neighbours step forward. Be one of them.

The market garden in full season

same money, a different home

Stop feeding the supermarket. Feed a farm you own.

Most of us spend more than £50 a week on food, and most of it disappears through tills and distribution centres into someone else's company. Point that same money at a farm in your area instead.

It buys you real food every week, grown a few miles from your door. A share of the land, recorded in your name and growing every year. And a say in the place that feeds your family. Same spend, a farm you co-own, instead of a company you never will.

The long table set at the farm

more than a food box

A place your week bends around.

Picture a Saturday, once the farm near you is real.

You leave the car at the gate and the week starts to fall away. The children are gone before you've finished buttoning your coat, off to find the hens, the others who have come today, whatever they ran to last time. You don't call them back. This is the one place you don't have to.

You take a basket through the gardens, cutting herbs, lifting what's ready, filling the gaps your kitchen will need. In the shop there's bread still warm and eggs from this morning, and you stop to talk on the way out, because the people here have become friends.

While the little ones are at forest school, learning to sow and forage and hold a chick without fear, the afternoon is yours. An hour in the sauna. A slow coffee by the fire in the cabin. Or nothing at all, which is its own kind of luxury. No one is hurrying you anywhere.

You came for the food. You stay because it feels like yours.

And eight times a year the whole place gathers, for the old festivals our grandparents knew. Fires and bread, seed-saving and song, the turning of the seasons marked together. The kind of afternoons that give something back to you that modern life quietly took away.

None of it run by you. All of it belonging to you. The smallholder life, a few minutes from home, without the early mornings.

This is what your weekly shop builds: not a delivery, but a place to come home to.

it rises when we're enough

A farm rises when its people show up.

We build a farm in an area once enough neighbours have committed to it. Every person who steps forward brings it closer to the ground. So here is the ask, plainly: if you believe food should come from land you can walk and people you can name, step forward now, and bring a neighbour. The sooner we are enough, the sooner we break ground.

Step forward · join for £100/year

It begins at £100 a year, fully refundable for 30 days. When the farm opens, you redirect your weekly shop to it, and your £100 comes off your first month.
