About Us

 

The Community Farm is a not-for-profit social enterprise based in the Chew Valley just outside Bristol and Bath.

We are a nature-friendly farm and work with a network of organic producers and local farmers who share our ethics to supply fresh, local and organic food to hundreds of households throughout Bristol, Bath, The Chew Valley, Frome and Weston-Super-Mare.

We aim to grow community as much as we grow food and every year we welcome more than 1,500 people onto the land for wellbeing courses, social events and volunteering sessions.

We welcome everyone in our community to nourish their body and mind by spending time on the land with us. Whether you’re interested in learning, therapy or play, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved for individuals and for groups.

We are always looking for funding to keep our Communities Programme running. If you would like to support us, please donate here.

The Farm

Our growing operation is based in Chew Magna, overlooking the beautiful Chew Valley Lake. We currently farm on 8.3 acres with the whole site extending to 15 acres. We are happy to be farming on Grade 1 agricultural land, which means we have a fantastic sandy loam soil that allows us to grow a huge variety of crops.
