In 2018, after a long period of uncertainty, the farm was sold on the open market to a consortium Ymlaen Moelyci. This consortium brings together charities and charitable incorporated organisations, private individuals, philanthropists, farmers and other businesses. Colin explained that Moelyci is a safe, neutral ground, experimenting with ideas for sustainable farming and living. There is a donkey sanctuary, allotments and also a forty-seat barn with Wifi and audio-visual which is available for groups that come and visit.<br \/>\nThey have a shop and cafe on the premises and everyone is welcome.<br \/>\nSee their website for more information about the valuable work they do<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.moelyci.org\/\">https:\/\/www.moelyci.org\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bangor-and-district\/files\/2021\/06\/Moelyci-Mountain.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bangor-and-district\/files\/2021\/06\/Moelyci-Mountain.jpg\" alt=\"Moelyci Mountain\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4826\" \/><\/a>Moelyci Mountain is also an SSSI, a site of special scientific interest.
