Call for Garden Hosts

 

For the past few months we have been gardening and cooking, and collecting people's recipes for life and good food.  We are going to be opening the garden for a performed communal feast (Sunday Sept 16th) and we are looking for guides / hosts who can lead an audience through the garden in an atmospheric storytelling experience.

If you'd like to come and help us, we'd love to meet you to find out about your own stories and memories about food and cooking and life in East London, so that you can share these with the visitors and help them to tell us theirs.

If you are interested and for more information please send your contact details to production@projectphakama.org by Monday 3rd September and one of the Edible Garden members will be in touch.

Or come to the introductory session on Wednesday 5th September at 6pm at Arts One (Building 37 on the map) Queen Mary University of London http://www.qmul.ac.uk/docs/about/26065.pdf

The Edible Garden at the Velela! Festival


On Sunday 24 June, the Edible Garden team welcomed the community and the Velela! Festival artists to its space in a celebratory feast. Participants took part in arts workshops led by Corinne and Sue and made beautiful tiles, produced their own recipe books, cooked with our chef Mike and our guest baker Lee. They shared stories and created new recipes for life. Then they all ate the wonderful food they helped prepare sitting by the warmth of our clay oven built by artist Anna Sikorska.

It was a truly delicious event.
