Brilliant Food and the Future event at @Bromley_by_Bow Centre yesterday. The sun shone, people gathered and healthy food was discussed. It was great to hear of all that is going on in @TowerHamletsNow including the Fantastic Food in Schools Programme featuring @tastedfeed

The @PeasPleaseUK #VegSummit promised to be a fun and interesting event and it delivered!
Loved the table displays (that became goody bags) from @growcomm.
Sadly didn’t get a pic of the Mariachi band, too busy chatting to fascinating ppl & enjoying the veggie mocktails!
Engaging and important discussions around the provision of universal free school meals.
Providing #UFSM is the first very necessary part of puzzle. Beyond this we must think of all the factors, including #foodeducation, that can lead to healthy consumption of the food provided.

On Sunday it was the @wearegrow___ Pumpkin Time event. Pumpkins to pick and carve, pumpkin soup, pumpkin fancy dress and even the chickens were enjoying some pumpkin. A beautiful opportunity for adults and children alike to spend time outside and see how food is grown.

BREAKING - #Rosebank oilfield just given go-ahead - the greatest act of environmental vandalism in my lifetime, causing emissions equal to 28 lowest income countries, busting #climate targets & doing nothing for energy security since vast majority is for export #climatecriminals
Just wondering if @GreenManFest you’re reconsidering showing the #WWC2023 Final after that #eng #aus match!
