The Monday team got stuck in on our new relocation site at Treraven Farm just outside Wadebridge.
Big thanks to growers Mark and Bridget and volunteers Bea, Charlotte, Danny, Darren, Finn, Helen and Tony.
The team put in hedgerow plants on the ‘bund’ by the car park, cleared more blackthorn and completed the rabbit-proof fence around the veg growing area.
The new hedge is full of native plants – hawthorn, spindle, guelder rose, dogwood, wild rose and hazel. And snowdrops!
Over the next 18 months we’re gradually relocating our polytunnels, growing beds, equipment store, solar panels and packing shed to the new site at Treraven from our current base at St Kew Highway.

We’ve also begun marking out our first two vegetable growing beds on our field at Treraven, which is owned by the Gaia Trust.
