Why Join Us?

Are you a smallholder or have an interest in any aspect of smallholding? The Glamorgan Smallholders’ Association was established to provide members throughout Vale of Glamorgan, Bridgend, Neath Port Talbot, Swansea, Cardiff, Caerphilly, Rhondda Cynon Taff and Merthyr Tydfil, with support and advice in all aspects of running a smallholding.

 

Our members have a wealth of knowledge and experience in all aspects of smallholding which they are only too willing to share.

​

We hold regular meetings around the Vale of Glamorgan area which are led by Glam Smalls members or invited speakers. We also arrange visits to members’ holdings and local producers and businesses. In the summer we attend a number of shows where members can attend to showcase their products/businesses. We also host socials and outdoor activities allowing members to gain experience in activities such as fencing, animal husbandry, turning produce into products, marketing your products and lots more.

​

Upcoming events for 2023 are:

  • How to Improve Beekeeping Skills & Knowledge

  • National Garden Scheme

  • Smallholding & Countryside Festival

  • Bridgend Country Show

  • Vale Show

  • Royal Welsh Show

  • Pig Talk with Menter Moch

  • Cider Talk

  • Ediculture & No Dig Veg patch

  • Social Media for Smallholders

  • Various farm walks and talks

  • Monthly social events such as Skittles, Bingo & Quiz Nights

The GSA also holds some essential equipment that can be loaned to members for a discounted fee. Find out more about the FEC PAK here.
