Communities across the UK are not only passionate about their food being produced ethically and sustainably, they are taking action to ensure that it is. They are buying land and creating new farms which can not only feed their communities in a post-carbon world, but do it in harmony with the natural world.
With inspirational stories and lots of resources, we aim to demystify the journey, from finding the right site, to looking after it down the years. We explore how community farms can be viable, how to finance your project, planning applications, governance and structures, and ensuring good strong relationships between the community owners and any tenants.
