Incredible Edible

Reading and searching for interesting action on sustainable food and farming, I came across this exciting network that turns our urban spaces into vegetable gardens. Started in North of England, this network is an example of how small ideas have true power to change the way we think, from England to New Zealand! Here is a TED talk by Pam Warhurst, one of the cofounders, to introduce you to the idea (truly inspiring, worth watching):

'Starting with small herb gardens and community plots, the group has since founded a food knowledge hub and fishery at the local high school, as well as a market garden for young people to grow and sell their own produce. It has also backed successful campaigns such as encouraging the keeping of free range chickens and bees.'

Have a look at their website and find out about the work they do here: http://incredibleediblenetwork.org.uk/. If this is not considered eating local and sustainably then I do not know what is! Thought it is a great idea worth sharing.

Till next time,
