Aims. We aim to study the 250 mu m luminosity function (LF) down to much fainter luminosities than achieved by previous efforts. Methods. We developed a modified stacking method to reconstruct the 250 mu m LF using optically selected galaxies from the SDSS survey and Herschel maps of the GAMA equatorial fields and Stripe 82. Our stacking method not only recovers the mean 250 mu m luminosities of galaxies that are too faint to be individually detected, but also their underlying distribution functions. Results. We find very good agreement with previous measurements in the overlapping luminosity range. More importantly, we are able to derive the LF down to much fainter luminosities (similar to 25 times fainter) than achieved by previous studies. We find strong positive luminosity evolution L-250'(z) proportional to (1 + z)(4.89 +/- 1.07) and moderate negative density evolution Phi(250)*(z) proportional to (1 + z)(-1.02 +/- 0.54) over the redshift range 0.02 < z < 0.5.
