Let's Talk about Food - Raasay

10 June 2023

Saturday 10 June  11.00 - 2.00  Raasay Walled Garden


From the Skye Climate Action newsletter -

10.25 am Ferry from Sconser  

• Tour of the Walled Garden, followed by lunch using local produce  
• Open discussion focussed on local solutions  
• 2 pm finish

2.30 pm Ferry back to Sconser – or stay on to continue conversations in smaller groups, or do your own thing.

The food system includes everything from production, through transport and packaging, purchase and preparation, to waste minimisation and composting. It impacts on health, environment, pollution, climate, food access and affordability, the local economy and community resilience.  

The Raasay event follows several ‘Food Conversations’ held by a small group of people concerned about local sustainable and affordable food production with particular interests in health, climate and environment, waste management and reducing food poverty.

So – if your interests are in home or commercial growing, crofting, retail, hospitality, environment, health, food poverty, climate action, plastic pollution, supporting local producers, involving children  – or just in eating good food – you are welcome to join in.

Climate Fringe Festival 2023

10 June 2023

Saturday 10 to Sunday 18 June

The Climate Fringe Festival will be back this June for its 2023 edition.

The Climate Fringe Festival is a community-led and community-organised series of events taking place across the whole of Scotland. It’s Scotland’s call for action on climate change, and will take place between 10th and 18th of June!

  • Already organising an event for those dates?
  • Have a campaign planned for that time?
  • Want to organise an event with a focus on climate, nature, or sustainability?

The Climate Fringe would love to hear from you! For more information, go to https://climatefringe.org/cff.

Together we will show decision-makers, from local government to Holyrood and Westminster, that we demand meaningful action now – for a greener, low carbon, sustainable future.

 

We are part of the rapidly expanding worldwide Transition Towns movement. The Black Isle is a peninsula of about 100 sq miles ENE of Inverness in Scotland, UK.
