Social Farms & Gardens (SF&G) have funding to support Community Orchards in Powys until February 2026, helping you to become more knowledgeable, connected and resilient. We can support you to manage and develop new and existing orchards, run orchard events and increase community involvement. In turn, this will bring associated health, wellbeing and nature benefits, increased local knowledge and a sense of pride-of-place to your community. We can also work with you to identify future opportunities, barriers and support needs, for which we aim to seek funds for future support.

- Events and training
- Grants for running events, and equipment
- Resources
- Networking opportunities
- Community engagement
- Signposting to further support
This form is for you to register your site's interest in support for any of the above, tell us about your site and your plans so we can support you appropriately and to apply for finance, if you wish.
