"The Eco Shop is open Mondays to Saturdays from 11 am. till 3 pm. and is staffed by a dedicated group of volunteers and co-ordinated by a Part time manager. Anyone wishing to get involved should call Martin on 01239 612734 or 07528 363653

The Eco Shop was set up in Cardigan in 2008 and aims to take responsibility in changing things for the better in light of evidence to suggest dwindling natural resources and over-consumption..

Funds raised from the Eco Shop go towards maintaining and developing the forest garden. We have had very positive feedback from local primary schools following visits from groups of children who have participated enthusiastically in tree planting and activities designed to raise awareness of the natural world and understanding of how our food is produced."
