About Pembrokeshire Local Food Partnership

The Pembrokeshire Local Food Partnership (PLFP), which is funded by Welsh Government, brings people, producers, and organisations together to strengthen our local food system. We work to make good food accessible, affordable, and celebrated across the county, supporting communities, local growers, and a thriving food culture.

The partnership is facilitated by PLANED, a local development charity with years of experience running community-led food projects. PLANED helps connect ideas, coordinate initiatives, and support projects that make a real difference for people and communities across Pembrokeshire.

About Food Partnerships

Food partnerships bring together partners from a range of different sectors to help tackle a range of social, economic and environmental issues as they strive to ensure good food for all. Partners usually include public bodies such as Health Boards and Local Authorities as well as other dedicated stakeholders such as voluntary organisations, charities, food business, retailers, wholesalers, growers and farmers.

Food Partnerships build resilience in local food networks through the co-ordination of on the ground, food-related activity, helping to tackle the root-causes of food poverty. They are also key to building and retaining wealth in Wales – economically, environmentally and socially – and helps to promote collaboration and inclusivity.

Pembrokeshire Local Food Partnership is one of 22 food partnerships across Wales and one of 10 Sustainable Food Places members in Wales. Pembrokeshire Local Food Partnership is now busy growing a place-based infrastructure in Pembrokeshire, helping to develop a ‘good food movement’ as well as supporting wider community food initiatives that benefit the health, economy, sustainability and social prosperity of local communities.
