About Edinburgh Agroecology Co-operative
EAC is an agroecology co-operative that has taken on the management of a 100 acre urban farm in Edinburgh. The vision is for a large-scale urban food growing project which is nature-rich, and which will benefit primarily the communities that live in the local area but also the wider city into the future. The farm integrates the three main themes of food growing, biodiversity and community.
