Bath City Farm is a working community Farm set on 37 acres in Southdown, Bath.

The Farms vision is to create a healthy community rooted in nature, food, farming and each other.

We support and empower people with mental health challenges or additional learning needs by providing skill based courses, volunteering and workshops. We farm regeneratively across our animals and land management, with a wildflower meadow, wildlife ponds and chemical-free food growing.
We're also a free visitor attraction providing education and enjoyment for families and children with a play park, wildlife, farm animals, walking trails, events and a cafe. It costs around £2000 a day to run the Farm and every pound that you donate counts and makes a difference.
Please join our community by becoming a monthly donator and help secure the future of the farm.

Why the community needs us
Our neighbourhood is within the 20% of most deprived areas in England as well as having the highest proportion of children living in poverty in the country. We deliver 17 different farm-based groups and programmes that support children, young people and adults looking to improve their mental health, living with learning difficulties, struggling to access work, or experiencing other struggles like loneliness.

Bath City Farm is a free green space that anyone can visit any time of day with several public footpaths running through the land. We maintain the 37 acres to encourage this vital access to the benefits of being outdoors.

Our impact on the community
Starting life in the early 1990s, the farm has grown in response to demand and now supports over 800 people a year to make a true difference to their lives. We also maintain the site as a free community resource and welcome around 70 000 visitors a year to our Farm.
