  5. City leaders get hands-on in Gower to back ‘farm to fork’ food revolution

    Members of the Swansea Public Services Board (PSB) made the trip to the great outdoors this week to visit Cae Tan Community Supported Agriculture, a working farm dedicated to sustainable growing.

    The high-level delegation included representatives from Swansea Council, the Swansea Bay University Health Board, and Natural Resources Wales, all keen to support locally grown produce.

    According to organisers, the visit showcased how seasonal vegetables are being supplied directly to Swansea households, bypassing traditional supermarket chains.

    Members of the Swansea Public Services Board and Bwyd Abertawe partners during their visit to Cae Tan in Gower.

    The event was co-ordinated by Bwyd Abertawe Food—Swansea’s Local Food Partnership—alongside teams dedicated to promoting healthy weight and nutritious diets across the region.

    The group has confirmed that plans are now underway to develop a dedicated local food strategy for Swansea to ensure more families can access sustainable produce.

    Dawn Lyle, Chair of Bwyd Abertawe Food, has said that “real momentum” is building around strengthening the food system in the city and surrounding areas.

    “This gathering at Cae Tan gave us a valuable opportunity to hear directly about the realities faced by growers and farmers,” she confirmed following the visit.

    Discussions focused on how to build a more resilient and sustainable food future for the Swansea Bay region.

    The leaders also discussed how public sector organisations can use their massive buying power to put more Gower-grown food into schools and hospitals.

    Grower Eva Walter-Jones, who welcomed the partners onto the land, has outlined exciting plans to expand vegetable supplies to local schools through the ‘Welsh Veg in Schools’ initiative.

    “It was very positive to see so much joined-up thinking and an appetite to do more,” Eva has said, adding that the collaboration gives “a lot of hope” for the future.

    Cllr Andrea Williams, Joint Deputy Leader of Swansea Council, has confirmed the authority’s commitment to the project, stating: “We must think differently about how we grow, buy and serve food.”

  17. Every ingredient we choose has a story behind it how it was grown, who cultivated it, and the impact it leaves behind. Imagine food systems where nourishment, fairness, and environmental respect are the core principles. What shifts do you think would happen if conscious food choices became the global norm?

  18. The EU Parliament voted to ban terms like “veggie burger” and “plant-based sausage” because consumers are confused. Research shows people understand what they’re buying. The real issue is bureaucracy, not consumer confusion. Climate and food security challenges remain unaddressed.
