Local food: Pollyanna or Panacea?
3 May 2014, 1.00 PM - 3 May 2014, 1.00 PM
Event Space, Third Floor, Hamilton House, 80 Stokes Croft, BS1 3QY
The new hub of scientists, artists, activists, social scientists and community practitioners ‘Soil, Seeds, and Social Change’ presents a series of provocations from a panel of diverse experts in response to the question: is local food the future of ecologically and economically sustainable food production?
This will lead to a series of roundtable discussions and activities where they consider the practicalities of, and alternatives to, local food as a political agenda.
Lunch will be provided by Bristol Hospitality Network, a charity which supports destitute asylum-seekers, in partnership with the Simms Hill Community Supported Agriculture Project.
This event is part of the Bristol Food Connections Festival 2014
