New lease of life for Hartcliffe City Farm
By Lowie Trevena, Monday Mar 8, 2021
A city farm will receive a new lease of life, thanks to a new partnership with two other local organisations.
Hartcliffe City Farm will now be looked after by Windmill Hill City Farm and Heart of BS13, a charity addressing health and environment problems in south Bristol for more than 30 years.
The site will remain as a farm, but the new custodians hope to also provide jobs and learning opportunities, and to host activities for the local community.
