Pembrokeshire Community Growing Network
Launched in June 2025, the Pembrokeshire Community Growing Network brings together garden projects across the county to share knowledge, tackle common challenges, and celebrate the benefits of growing food locally. Supported by PLFP, the network promotes biodiversity, wellbeing, and food resilience by connecting people to nature and fresh produce. It aims to expand training, enterprise opportunities, and collaboration between gardens and kitchens, helping communities grow more food, engage more people, and build a stronger local food system.
We believe that community growing spaces have a tremendous amount to offer their communities: access to fresh food, skill building, and improved social and nature connections. Community growing will also play a crucial role in food resilience, by providing local people with both the skills and space to grow their own produce. We want to support these projects to grow, develop and continue to serve their communities.
Through this network, our goal is to help the gardens access more funding, engage more people, and, of course, grow more food!
Community Kitchens
We are also exploring how community growing sites can work alongside community kitchens to help provide healthy, affordable, local food to everyone.
