Greenslate Community Farm

About

Greenslate Community Farm is a community run 37 acre Permaculture farm run by a dedicated team of volunteers, and is open to the public 7 days a week, focusing on sustainable food growing, education and healthy lifestyles. We are a not for profit, self funded community led project with the aim of creating a sustainable and therapeutic environment for our community to enjoy. We operate a Care Farm for adults with additional needs during the week and grow fresh, regeneratively grown produce which supplies a Cafe on site. We provide educational visits to schools, colleges and community groups centred around sustainable farming, animal husbandry and conservation practices. The site operates as a community hub for many other social enterprises and services, from baby groups, forest schools and youth groups, to mental health sevices and recovery workshops. We also run regular community events and training events throughout the year.
