Storm Darragh did not put off Tarek, Leszek and myself from heading down to the farm to support R with the farm. We were treated to a tour by a lovely volunteer and there was plenty going on to keep visitors occupied. We welcomed visitors and inspired them to feed the chickens, check out the bonfire and Leszek stayed to see the Christmas lights turn on at 3:30pm! We created mistletoe bundles for customers and helped to unpack Christmas trees - Tarek kept us warmed with good vibes and laughter. A great day to connect with the local community and try the tasty food on offer. We will gladly return to support the next mission!
ldermoor Community Farm was started in 2014 as business owned by its members – a co-operative. This was a great way to start, but in 2020 we transitioned to become a charity and now benefit from being a project of Alder Trust. Not only do we now have the financial benefits of being a charity, but we are part of a larger organisation, a local charity with similar values and goals. We benefit from a wider governing body and from basic admin support, giving us more energy to focus on our work on the land.
