Our work with food hubs and food banks

Since 2024, our community growing project at Wedmore Village Farm has enabled us to supply over 15,000 portions of fresh & ecologically grown vegetables and fruit to food banks and food hubs.

We grow all our food following agroecological principles; minimising soil disturbance, maximising biodiversity, and avoiding any use of artificial chemicals or fertilisers – all with the mission of helping those in the community who need it most.

Currently, we work with three food banks and three social pantries across Cheddar, Wells, Highbridge, Glastonbury, and Shepton Mallet. Food banks and social pantries help to support individuals and families struggling with food insecurity, who can’t afford to buy food.
