The Marches Real Food and Farming Convergence 2025 will be hosted in Monmouthshire this year, as the event visits Square Farm, Monmouth.
In its third year running and its first visit to Monmouthshire, the convergence will explore the future of local food while fostering collaboration on the 3 and 4 October 2025.
Focusing on key themes such as agroecology, regenerative farming, and the development of strong local supply chains, the event seeks to address critical issues of food resilience and the interconnectedness of soil, plant, animal, and human health. Those attending can engage in meaningful discussions and share innovative practices with others who are actively working at the forefront of these vital topics.
The event will feature a variety of presentations, learning circles, and practical sessions spread across three spaces at Square Farm. Attendees will also have the opportunity to browse exhibitor stands showcasing local initiatives and resources. Plus, the event promises delicious local food and live entertainment on the evening of Friday, 3 October.
We welcome everyone interested in the future of our local food systems to join this interactive event. Come ready to share ideas, learn from experts, and connect with others who share a passion for sustainable agriculture.
