Stepney City Farm is a 4.5 acre working farm; a unique educational resource, and a rural oasis at the heart of the local community. Our charity has been running the site since 2010 and has improved facilities to provide housing and grazing for animals; craft studios; a Farmer’s Market; and a Café utilising produce raised and grown on the Farm. Urban children and adults in one of England’s most deprived boroughs can meet animals; try out crafts; and connect with food production, through the provision of 78 allotment spaces; formal learning programmes; volunteering; and access to affordable local organic standard produce. Organic method food growing, animal care, environmental improvement and biodiversity are our core priorities at Stepney City Farm, and are the basis for our formal and informal educational and volunteering opportunities. The Farm is a best-practice educational model of sustainable agriculture in the heart of one of the most deprived urban boroughs in the country. We provide a gateway to rural careers and environmental education. We advance wellbeing and inclusion and address issues of mental and physical health through the promotion of healthy eating, physical activity through volunteering, green care, and open access to green space. The Farm is - and always will be - free to visit, and we work to continually improve access for our diverse community, and to identify and remove barriers to attendance and participation.
