Aldermoor Community Farm

We are a bunch of ordinary people working together to produce as much food as we can in a sustainable way. Our acre of land was overgrown for many years but now we are designing a beautiful and productive place using permaculture principles.

We believe everyone has great potential and we exist to nurture that potential. That is why we are growing a community at the farm. We also believe the land has great potential and we hope that as we nurture it together it will be both productive and beautiful.

Aldermoor 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.
