Who we are

About the farm

As a social enterprise we have been working since 2011 to build a more sustainable local food system: we run two shops in Glasgow (Govanhill and Partick), with an organic café at Govanhill, and an organic veg box scheme. Since early 2025 we have been growing vegetables on 21 acres (about 8.5 ha) at Barnhill Farm near Inchinnan; the land is in organic conversion and we grow to organic standards, developing around 2 acres as a market garden with polytunnels. We deliver our own vegetables (potatoes, carrots, alliums, brassicas, squash, lettuce, chard, beetroot, beans) in veg boxes across central Scotland with our own electric vans, and boxes can also be collected at the farm.
