Call-out to map London Community Food projects

Ever wondered how to contact your nearest community food project to see if they run beginner courses?

Ever wanted to contact other growing sites in your area to borrow tools, exchange seeds, catch up on this season’s slug infestations?

For some months CFGN has been meeting community food growing projects finding out how volunteers can get involved, what kind of activities the sites run, what they produce and where it goes.

Venue Announced & Date Change: UK Food Sovereignty Movement Gathering

Message from the UK Food Sovereignty Movement Gathering Core Group:

We’ve found a great venue for the national food sovereignty gathering in Hebden Bridge. The date has been changed to 23-26 October due to availability. This is a couple of weeks later than we originally planned and we hope that this will still work for everyone.
