Tyfu is a partnership project led by Ty Gwydr Greenhouse and Trawsnewid Bangor Transition with support from BTCV Cymru, Bangor Forest Garden, Afal Enlli, Wales Youth Forum for Sustainable Development and others who are yet to formerly join the project.

Tyfu is preparing a management plan for the fields which will be presented to Gwynedd Council in April 2010. If accepted by Gwynedd Council Tyfu will apply for Big Lottery funding to purchase the land for the community of Bangor and to develop a community vision for the fields.
