Falmouth Food Cooperative
are looking to start a Falmouth branch of the National Food Service and have two aims so far. One to host a first trial pop up kitchen in January. The second to look at the feasibility of running a NFS project in the long-run, particularly with the idea of getting a venue. At this initial stage, they are currently meeting every Wednesday 6-8pm in the meeting room in the Seven Stars pub. Anyone is welcome so spread the word to anyone you might know who could be interested. See https://falmouthfoodcoop.com
Soul Farm — No dig regenerative market garden
is looking to develop their existing local food initiative near Flushing into a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and is currently crowdfunding to that end. At the time of posting they have 23 days left to raise £5,000 and are well worthy of your support. See https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/soul-farm
Please note that Thursday 16th January 2020 will be the next meeting for both Falmouth LETS and Transition Falmouth, and from February meetings for both groups will be on the second Thursday in the month.
