Feed It Forward: A Generosity Food Movement

Feed It Forward takes excess and donated produce, and uses it for unique monthly cook-ups where locals are the cooks, making nutritious shared-table meals for themselves and their neighbours.
Locals can join our cooks to prepare and cook meals, or they can simply come and eat. Payment for meals is discretionary: pay what you can, if you can, or what you feel it’s worth.
We’ll cook extra food to supply the local Food Bank and people needing more-regular low-cost meals.
Recipe cards are available for people to build a library of affordable, easy-to-prepare dishes made using fresh, in-season produce.

Feed It Forward monthly lunches will:
• reduce food waste
• give people confidence to learn how to prepare inexpensive meals from fresh produce that may be new to them
• bring together disparate segments of these rural communities
• provide a platform and paid work for local artists who will perform at each event
• provide short- and longer-term food support for people with illnesses or on low incomes
• provide purpose and connection for those feeling isolated
• make more people well-fed and happy
