About the reserve

Wilder Pentwyn Farm has a 30 vision to bring nature back in full, making space for local food production, holding back water and providing opportunities for income generation,

We are at the beginning of a long process, but have made much progress.

But we are certain of the spirit of the management we will undertake: low input and extensive, to restore natural processes and put nature in the driving seat.
