COCA community farm starts

Caerhys Organic Community Agriculture (COCA) is a community supported agriculture scheme based at Caerhys Farm in Berea and is the result of meetings between Caerhys farmer, Gerald Miles, and St Davids Eco City Group. At the time it was the only scheme of its kind in Pembrokeshire.

Sometimes doing a beach clean can be really depres Sometimes doing a beach clean can be really depressing when you see the rubbish & plastic that has been dumped or made it's way to our seas🥺 BUT ... then you have to look at the amazing 15 people that turned up this afternoon, in windy & damp conditions, to join us with the Newgale Beach Wombles to collect bag fulls of rubbish from Newgale beach that are no longer a risk to our marine environment.😃🙌 And then consider that IF we keep spreading the word, encouraging others & working together, we CAN fight back against climate change, the biodiversity crisis and change humans' current practices of using our planet as a dumping ground.🛢♻️ We must remain optimistic AND we must keep collaborating and inspiring others.💚🌎 A huge thanks to everyone that turned up today at the final event of St Davids Peninsula #GreatBigGreenWeek & especially those who also signed up for the Add Your Voice campaign with @climate.cymru .

Wow, what an inspiring & thought provoking film!😃 Just had the official screening of #2040 by @togetherfilms in Solva with 30 other people from probably 6 to 86 in age. Reminds you that so much knowledge & tech is already out there to fight back against climate change but … we just need to choose to make certain decisions as communities & societies to embrace it, preferably now! Small steps together will all help.🌍 If you want to be involved with some conversations to see what we can do across St Davids Peninsula then please do get in touch with us at EcoDewi.💚 Huge thanks to the awesome Solva Cinema team for helping to make tonight happen.🎥🙌 We may try to arrange another viewing in November but If you’d like to watch 2040 sooner rather than later, you can rent it with some of the options shown below.

What an amazing night last night with some fantast What an amazing night last night with some fantastic speakers & discussions as part of St Davids Peninsula #GreatBigGreenWeek!💚 We heard about saving a now very rare species of butterfly in the St Davids Peninsula, about the reintroduction of white tailed eagles to Pembrokeshire, and how our county council is reducing their carbon footprint!👣 Main takeaway from the night is to just get involved with something: whether that's a local conservation project or local politics, you can play a part & make a difference!💪 Great to see so many people 'adding their voice' as part of the @climatecymru campaign.📣 A huge thanks to everyone who attended and engaged in some great conversations.👏 And of course a massive thanks to our wonderful speakers: 🌎 Cllr Joshua Beynon from @pembrokeshirecountycouncil , 🦅 Dr Sophie-Lee Williams from Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust & the Eagle Reintroduction Wales Project, and 🦋 Dr Sarah Beynon, our very own local wildlife superstar, from @thebugfarm !🙌 We'd also like to extend a massive thanks to Claire Bates, Manager at @orielyparc (@pembscoast ) for such an amazing venue & her brilliant support to not only the night but the whole week🤝, and to the wonderful Stacey at @pilgrimscafestdavids for staying open to ensure our guests had some lovely refreshments.☕️🧁 There's still more going on as part of the Great Big Green Week so check out the final few days of activities at https://ecodewi.org.uk/gbgw. We'll also be organising more talks & networking evenings throughout the year. Final top tip of the night: If you are explaining to some about the re-introduction of sea eagles to Pembrokeshire, maybe don't say it too quickly as it sounds like Seagulls and then you get some very strange looks! Perhaps just say white-tailed eagles😉 #stdavidspeninsula #stdavids #pembrokeshire #climatechange #BiodiversityCrisis #lovenature #seaeagles #whitetailedeagles #rewilding #MarshFritillary #bugfarm #TheDurrells #localpolitics #localgovernment #community #ecodewi

Great to play a small part in the UK’s #greatbiggreenweek. Brilliant to see #stdavids & @OrielyParc feature in this video. In Wales you can still raise your voice to politicians by visiting https://climate.cymru/add-your-voice/ #addyourvoice #TheFightThatUnites @ClimateCymru

The Climate Coalition@TheCCoalition

What a week! During the #GreatBigGreenWeek communities showed up for the planet at more than 5000 events all with a clear message:
Climate change is #TheFightThatUnites. And we need politicians to step up and take action.
