The Hartley Business Community is a thriving network of independent businesses based at Hartley Farm. Rooted in shared values of quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship, we bring together a diverse group of makers, producers, and entrepreneurs who contribute to the unique character of our farm.
More than just a collection of businesses, we are a community—supporting one another, collaborating, and creating a space where small enterprises can grow and flourish. Whether it’s a food producer, artisan, or flexible workspaces, each member of our community plays a part in shaping the experience of Hartley Farm for our customers and visitors.
By fostering strong relationships and championing local talent, the Hartley Business Community is about more than just business—it’s about building connections, sharing knowledge, and enriching the wider community through great food, craft, and enterprise.
If you have an enquiry or would like to learn more about joining the Hartley Business Community, please get in touch—we’d love to hear from you!

GROWN GREEN
Grown Green is an organically certified market garden run by Kate Collyns. Kate has been growing incredible produce here at the farm for our farm shop and kitchen since 2010. She is an expert in organic horticulture and has published two books on the subject.
THE OVEN
The Oven is run by husband-and-wife duo Nathan & Angie in their small but perfectly formed bakery on the farm. Their unique sourdough loaves are baked with care and available in the farm shop or at Bath Farmers’ Market on Saturdays
LIFEWORK COMMUNITY
Lifework Community is a coworking space that opened at the farm in 2022. Paul and Jo have a vision for using co-working as a force for good, bringing work closer to home and the community together more often to benefit the local economy, environment and society
BATH BESPOKE
Bath Bespoke joined our farm community over ten years ago. What began as a workshop for passionate carpenters, Tom and James, crafting high-quality kitchens and cabinets, has grown into a thriving team. Today, they’re expert craftsmen and mentors, keeping this incredible craft alive.
ALLOTMENTS
With allotments no longer available in the village and strong community demand, we created our Community Allotments in 2010, which you can spot on the drive up to the farm. There’s a waiting list, and applications are reviewed every January.
POP-UPS
Throughout the year, we host a variety of small, independent businesses popping up on the farm. From our Friday fishmonger to a children’s shoe fitting service, there’s always something different to discover. If you think your business would be a good fit, get in touch
