WHO WE ARE
Farmacy Co-op was launched in Bakewell in February 2020. We're a not-for-profit social enterprise that has a big vision - but has prioritised secure access to locally produced organic food & natural essential items. This includes a people-owned distribution network that connects local communities all over the country. We are helping to create local economic systems that provide food security, improve our health & wellbeing, regenerate our ecosystems and allow communities to thrive & that are resilient to any crisis.
​
-
We are completely run by volunteers (currently 3 X Core Functions, 15 X packers & 15 X drivers)
​
Organic
The produce we deliver is certified organic - grown without chemical pesticides & non-genetically modified.
Local
We aim to source our produce from local organic farmers as much as possible to support the localisation of food production rather than corporate food dependence.
Not-for-profit
We have no shareholders - created with a legal requirement & purpose to benefit the People & Planet. We're a not-for-profit business - social enterprise - whose financial surplus (profit) goes back into the project so we can serve the community better & our mission can expand across other communities.
Co-operative
We believe in democracy at work and community ownership. We also want to cooperate & collaborate with other like-minded organisations. Co-ops also offer the decentralisation of power & control.
