From the ground up
Farmacy is a biodynamic farm where food, education and experience meet the land. We grow real food from living soil, teach regeneration in all its forms from the UK's first accredited training in sustainable hospitality to workshops in growing, cooking and living well, and open our gates for events and experiences that change how people think. Rooted in agroecology and the belief that the industrial food system can be dismantled and rebuilt from the ground up, Farmacy is a growing movement, defined by doing the work, not just talking about it.
From the soil to the sun, everything above, below and between us is part of one living whole. Farmacy grows real food from biodynamic soil, held together by a single belief: food is medicine, and a broken food system can be dismantled and rebuilt from the ground up. Everything we do, on the land, at the table, and in the classroom, grows from there.
Camilla Fayed founded Farmacy in 2016, after experiencing first-hand how an organic diet could heal. What began as a belief about food became a mission about the land beneath it.
Her passion is natural farming. She has anchored Farmacy in biodynamics, a holistic approach that treats the farm as a single living organism, and built its education arm to pass that knowledge on.
Camilla believes food speaks to every major crisis we face, from our own health to the planet's, and that how we grow it is where real change begins. Farmacy is her answer: not a statement about a better food system, but the work of building one.
Farmacy is delighted to be partnering with MAD in Copenhagen to bring their best-in-class hospitality education to the United Kingdom. Founded by René Redzepi of the restaurant Noma, MAD’s educational courses, symposiums, and publications help chefs and other professionals working in food lead the change that our industry — and the planet — needs. Like Farmacy, MAD is on a mission to equip the next generation of food industry professionals with the knowledge, tools, and inspiration they need to make their businesses thrive, their industry fair, and the world’s food systems truly sustainable.
Farmacy is proud to have supported the launch of Earthed, a platform that provides masterclasses for nature skills. On Earthed, you can learn from the world’s greatest nature leaders for free how to make your balcony, garden, or local river and forest burst with life. Farmacy’s event team has been present to provide delicious biodynamic meals at the Earthed Summit, powering conversations on the theme of nature regeneration and land wisdom.
City Harvest is on the front lines of the Covid-19 Crisis sourcing over 50 tons of surplus, in-date food each week to 300 local charities that serve or deliver meals to the most vulnerable. That’s food for over 100,000 free nutritious meals per week, approaching 10 million meals since their launch in 2014. We are proud to be able to donate surplus fresh biodynamic produce from our Farmacy Farm to such an incredible initiative.
