Food & Beverages - , ,
Vegetables that are Local, Ethical and Affordable.We supply fresh organic Veg Bags from small farmers directly to our community in North West London.We are not your ordinary commercial veg box scheme. We are a small group of local people who love food and are committed to working towards a more sustainable system of food production. We are a co-operative not-just-for-profit Veg Bag scheme!We work in partnership with our suppliers, Co-operatives UK, Growing Communities, The Plunkett Foundation and Transition Town Kensal to Kilburn, to supply our local community with a weekly selection of fresh and affordable organic seasonal produce direct from selected organic farmers based as close to London as possible.As we grow, we plan to develop our own patchwork city farm at various sites at allotments, parks and schools. We will then be able to supplement our Veg Bags with a variety of salads and herbs and be able to count food miles on one hand. We want to involve lots of people (especially small people) in helping us build this. We want to provide training and jobs to local people. We want to reinvigorate our community and strengthen links between people living in our neighbourhood. We want to do all this and more.
