We're a new project concerned with educating, promoting and celebrating all aspects of local food. Our core activities include running pay-by-donation Sunday afternoon workshops which are open to all and six week courses (Seed To Plate; Harvest To Jar; Forage To Fork, Making To Sell) which we deliver to community groups such as young carers, low income families, and minority groups.

Below is our 2012 program of Sunday afternoon workshops. Places are very limited so drop us a line to book a place. Friends, family and all experience/skill levels welcome.
