MindFood is a community interest company that helps people to recover from mental health issues by  growing and selling food. Produce is sold into local communities – as well as our very own Edible Ealing veg box scheme.

The company is setting up a new sensory market garden in Ealing and has secured a new site at Cleverly Crescent, just north of Hangar Lane gyratory. They are looking for volunteers both to help set up the site, and ongoing. If you would like to help, please contact edharkness@mindfood.org.uk. More details at http://www.mindfood.org.uk

Building on the impact of the People’s Climate March last September, on March 7th 2015, the National Climate March will bring people together again to demand real change – enough to avoid climate chaos.  The march will start at Lincoln’s Inn Fields, with protesters gathering at 12:30pm. If you would like to join an Ealing Transition group, please come along to Ealing Broadway station for 11:30am. All welcome!

Sunday 18th January 7:30pm. Film Showing: Voices of Transition

Global environmental trends – climate change, peak oil and food insecurity are forcing us to confront problems with our industrial agricultural system. Powered by the conviction that these crises can be a major catalyst for positive change, ‘Voices in Transition’ casts a spotlight on the ‘Transition Town’ movement, introducing inspiring stories from France, England and Cuba.

Run time is 65 mins: you can read more and watch a trailer at http://voicesoftransition.org/  As usual, the showing takes place at St Mary’s Church, St Mary’s Road, Ealing W5 5AW. Entry is free, but we will ask for donations after the film to help us cover screening costs. After the screening, there will be an opportunity to explore the film’s messages over cakes and hot drinks.
