We are looking for customers
Imagine a supermarket that grows its own fruit and veg, stocks predominantly organic products, sources from ethical wholesalers and local producers, provides low waste and refills and then delivers to your door in an electric vehicle, and with a smile.
​
Pili-Pala is establishing a unique and alternative grocery shopping approach that brings locally grown market garden veg and the best organic, fair trade and sustainable products to your door.
About: Pili-Pala farm
Pili-Pala is the Welsh word for butterfly, and symbolises the transformation of this south facing hillside into a regenerative micro farm. Using ethical growing principles, and a "chemical free", no-dig approach, we grow a wide range of seasonal crops using organic principles - and have been doing this successfully since 2020.
We combine our amazing produce with a range of everyday groceries and offer these to a local membership cohort, a little bit like a CSA.
Meet the grower
The farm is managed and tended by grower Tom Edwards, who continues to adapt and learn his craft on this challenging south facing hillside plot. Tom is supported by his family, who pitch in with weeding, harvesting and sowing, making this a family venture.
​
Tom has a lifelong passion for gardening, wildlife and ecology, and holds a BA Honours in Wildlife Conservation.
Following a 20 year city based career in social work, Pili-Pala Farm was established following a move to rural Wales in 2019, and was prompted by a desire to reconnect with the earth, return to this passion and challenge an increasingly broken food system.
