what we do

seasonal gatherings

Every season we hold a friendly gathering of the network. Each time we look at a new topic around food growing and the environment, share a delicious hot lunch and go on a tour of local community gardens. It’s a great chance to get to know other food-growing enthusiasts in your area. Everyone is welcome to this free event. Find out about the next Food Gathering here.
