Support Celtic Leaf: Growing Fresh Food for Our Community

Based in the village of Llanfarian, near Aberystwyth, Celtic Leaf is launching a not-for-profit hydroponic farming initiative with a mission to grow fast, nutritious microgreens, fruits, and vegetables. Our goal is to provide fresh, healthy food to those in need in our local area.

We plan to donate 65% of our produce to local food banks, shelters, and families struggling to access fresh food. We aim to partner with local organizations to ensure a consistent supply of nourishing produce and offer local delivery to individuals in need, making fresh food accessible right at their doors.

The remaining 35% of our harvest will be sold to local restaurants and private buyers, with all profits reinvested into buying equipment, covering operational costs, and expanding our reach.

What We Grow

Celtic Leaf focuses on fast-growing, highly nutritious crops, including:

• Microgreens: arugula, radish, broccoli, sunflower shoots
• Leafy greens: kale, spinach, Swiss chard
• Herbs: basil, cilantro, parsley
• Fruits and vegetables: cherry tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers

Our hydroponic systems ensure a steady, year-round supply of these nutrient-rich crops.

Why We Need Your Support

To launch Celtic Leaf, we need £5,000 for key equipment:

• Light units for ideal growing conditions
• Nutrients for healthy plants
• Growing mediums for hydroponics
• Grow trays and towers to maximize space

We’re also partnering with Diamond Circuits to implement monitoring and automation systems for optimal growth.

How You Can Help

Your support will help us:

• Provide fresh, nutritious food through local deliveries and food bank partnerships
• Create a sustainable solution to food insecurity in Llanfarian and surrounding areas
• Reinvest profits from sales into equipment, operational costs, and expansion

Let’s Grow Together
