Local Food Event

Just shy of 100 people joined us for our Local Food day on Saturday 21 November 2009, and participated with great energy and enthusiasm. We had a range of talks both dramatic and inspiring, and an excellent afternoon of debate and planning.

For a slideshow of pictures from the day, click here here.

Nine groups formed to discuss and plan the following:

Advice for First Time Growers
Local Food Distribution
Food Policy
Local Composting
Locally Sourced Food Directory
Energy from Food Waste
More Land for Growing
Competing Demands on Green Spaces
Vegan Sources of Protein

The immediate output from these groups is here and already demonstrates what is possible when a community starts to act together.
