🪱🌱 Today at Cultivate – celebrating World Earthworm Day!
Heddiw yng Nghynefin – dathlu Diwrnod Mwydod y Ddaear!

Jean was busy feeding the worms while Cultivate’s composting group introduced NPTC students to these wriggly soil heroes and the wonders of composting.

Roedd Jean yn brysur yn bwydo’r mwydod, tra roedd grŵp compostio Cultivate yn cyflwyno’r myfyrwyr o NPTC i’r arwyr bach hyn sy’n byw yn y pridd, ac yn dangos iddyn nhw ryfeddodau compostio.

The team also tended the hotbin, cleared the last of the butternut squash and sowed lentils saved from this year’s polytunnel crop. The bed was mulched with rabbit bedding, coffee compost from the Johnson SU team and rotted woodchip. Closing the loop! 🌱

Bu’r tîm hefyd yn gofalu am y compostwr poeth, yn casglu’r sboncen cnau menyn olaf ac yn hau corbys a arbedwyd o gnwd eleni yn y twnnel polythen. Yna, gorchuddiwyd y gwely â gwasarn cwningod, compost o wastraff coffi gan dîm Johnson SU a sglodion pren wedi pydru’n dda. Ailgylchu naturiol ar ei orau – gan roi rhywbeth yn ôl i’r pridd! 🌱

🪱 Earthworms help recycle nutrients, improve soil structure and support a thriving soil food web.

🪱 Mae mwydod yn helpu i ailgylchu maetholion, gwella strwythur y pridd a chynnal rhwydwaith bwyd iach a bywiog o dan ein traed. 🌱

The Oddysseed: From Seed to Compost

What does it take for a seed to become part of a thriving local food system?

Join us in Machynlleth for The Oddysseed — a journey through the Dyfi Valley exploring how local growers, food retailers and compost makers are working together to help local food grow and flourish.

We’re delighted that Richard Edwards, Executive Director of Cultivate and Chair of Bwyd Powys Food, will be chairing the discussion. Richard works to strengthen local food supply chains, support community growing and build a more resilient food system across Powys.

From growing and selling local produce to turning discarded materials into nutrient-rich compost, this discussion will explore the connections that make a local food system work — from seed to soil and back again.

📅 Friday 23 October 2026
🕖 7:00–8:30pm
📍 The Wynnstay, Machynlleth

Come along, hear from local food champions and join the conversation about the future of food in our communities.

Prosiect y Gororau yn sicrhau £1.4 miliwn i helpu cymunedau lleol i lunio dyfodol bwyd.

Mae pobl ledled y Gororau – yn Sir Fynwy, Swydd Henffordd, Powys a Swydd Amwythig – yn cael eu gwahodd i helpu i lunio system fwyd leol fwy cryf, gwyrdd a gwydn drwy brosiect newydd mawr sy’n cael ei gefnogi gan dros £1.4 miliwn o a***n y Loteri Genedlaethol.

Mae Systemau Bwyd y Gororau ar gyfer y Dyfodol wedi derbyn £1,458,193 gan y Gronfa Gweithredu Hinsawdd, ymrwymiad hirdymor gan Gronfa Gymunedol y Loteri Genedlaethol sy’n cefnogi cymunedau ledled y DU i weithredu ar newid hinsawdd ac ysgogi mwy o bobl i gymryd camau cadarnhaol dros yr amgylchedd.

Mae’r prosiect yn cael ei arwain gan Bartneriaeth Bwyd y Gororau, cydweithrediad rhwng Partneriaeth Bwyd Sir Fynwy, Bwyd Powys Food – Cultivate, Cynghrair Bwyd Swydd Henffordd a Phartneriaeth Bwyd Da Swydd Amwythig, gyda Chyngor Sir Fynwy yn gweithredu fel y corff atebol arweiniol.

Gan ddod â phobl leol, ffermwyr, busnesau bwyd a sefydliadau cymunedol ynghyd, bydd y prosiect yn cefnogi gweithredu ymarferol dan arweiniad lleol sy’n cryfhau gwydnwch bwyd, yn lleihau allyriadau carbon ac yn creu cysylltiadau cryfach rhwng cynhyrchwyr a defnyddwyr.

Dros y blynyddoedd nesaf, bydd gan gymunedau ledled y Gororau gyfleoedd i ddatblygu prosiectau sy’n adlewyrchu blaenoriaethau ac anghenion lleol. Gallai’r rhain gynnwys mentrau tyfu a choginio
cymunedol, cynlluniau compostio a lleihau gwastraff bwyd, prydau cymunedol, ymweliadau â ffermydd a gweithgareddau sy’n helpu mwy o bobl i gael gafael ar fwyd a gynhyrchir yn lleol a’i gefnogi.

Dywedodd Richard Edwards, Cadeirydd Bwyd Powys Food: “Ym Mhowys, mae ein cysylltiad â’n cynefin – ein tir, ein treftadaeth a’n cymunedau – yn ddwfn. Nid yw’r prosiect hwn yn ymwneud â bwyd yn unig; mae’n ymwneud â meithrin, meithrin ein gwydnwch lleol, ein heconomi wledig, a’n hamgylchedd ar gyfer y cenedlaethau sydd i ddod. Drwy weithio gyda’n gilydd ledled y Gororau, rydyn ni’n rhoi llais go iawn i’n ffermwyr a’n cymunedau lleol wrth lunio system fwyd sy’n gallu gwrthsefyll newid hinsawdd ac sydd wir yn gweithio i Gymru a’n cymdogion dros y ffin.”

Wrth i’r prosiect ddatblygu, bydd cyfleoedd i bobl leol, ffermwyr, cynhyrchwyr, busnesau bwyd a sefydliadau ledled y Gororau gymryd rhan, rhannu syniadau a helpu i lunio camau gweithredu lleol.

Marches project secures £1.4m to help local communities shape the future of our food.

People across the Marches – in Monmouthshire, Herefordshire, Powys and Shropshire - are being invited to help shape a stronger, greener and more resilient local food system through a major new project backed by over £1.4 million in National Lottery funding.

Marches Food Systems for the Future has received £1,458,193 from the Climate Action Fund, a long-term commitment from The National Lottery Community Fund/ Cronfa Gymunedol y Loteri Genedlaethol that supports communities across the UK to take action on climate change and engage more people in positive environmental action.

The project is led by Marches Food Partnership, a collaboration between Monmouthshire Food Partnership, Bwyd Powys Food - Cultivate, Herefordshire Food Alliance and Shropshire Good Food Partnership, with Monmouthshire County Council acting as the lead accountable body.

Bringing together local people, farmers, food businesses and community organisations, the project will support practical, locally led action that strengthens food resilience, reduces carbon emissions and creates stronger connections between producers and consumers.

Over the coming years, communities across the Marches will have opportunities to develop projects that reflect local priorities and needs. These could include community growing and cooking initiatives, composting and food waste reduction schemes, shared meals, farm visits and activities that help more people access and support locally produced food.

Richard Edwards, Chair of Bwyd Powys Food, said “In Powys, our connection to our cynefin—our
land, heritage, and communities—runs deep. This project isn’t just about food; it’s about meithrin, nourishing our local resilience, our rural economy, and our environment for generations to come. By working together across the Marches, we are giving our farmers and local communities a real voice in shaping a climate- resilient food system that truly works for Wales and our border neighbours.”

As the project develops, there will be opportunities for local people, farmers, producers, food
businesses and organisations from across the Marches to get involved, share ideas and help shape local action.
