Wheely Tots Food on the Farm
PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Food on the Farm is based on Broadwater Farm Estate, one of England’s 10% most deprived neighbourhoods (IMD, 2019), and provides a community-led foodbank, a community kitchen providing hot, healthy meals prepared by a local cook with support from 13 regular volunteers, and cooking-on-a-budget workshops. In 2020 we recognised the need for a foodbank to support residents during Covid-19 lockdown; our current offer has grown out of this.
