Feast on the Farm [fwd]

Come and say hello to us at our stall at Sneinton Market on Saturday
10th December between 10am and 6pm, lots going on all day and a great
opportunity to get your Christmas shopping done.

And on Sunday 10th December we would love it if you could join us for
a celebration of the Orchard project at the city farm between 4pm and
8pm. There will be a festive bonfire, food from Ecoworks in the cafe
and apple recipe sharing and tasting. Bring along your own apple
recipes to taste and share!

Contact me if you would like to help in any way or want any more info.
Best wishes

Healthy living, personal growth and spiritual well-being through
pesticide-free, locally produced food…

Promote your Community Café with an Apple Recipe! [fwd]

Dear Community Cafe,

Showcase the delicious food that your Community Café offers by
contributing an apple based recipe and sample to the Orchard Feast to
be held at Stonebridge City Farm on Sunday 11th December between 4 and
8pm. We are hoping to gather all the recipes together to make a book
which will include details of each Community Café that has contributed
a recipe.

Recipes and samples can be dropped off at the City Farm on Sat 10th or
Sunday 11th or I can collect them from the Market Launch if that’s
easier. Don’t forget to include info about your Community Café as well
as any history or stories about the recipe.
Please contact me if you need more detail.

Best wishes
Audrey

News Round Up

Alain Job of Melting Pot Cafe at the Sycamore centre is also a street food pioneer.  And with the help of University students (more on this later as Marsha from Secret Kitchen has also tapped into this resource) he has created his own brand of street food – Nkono.  It is a banana skin cone with the Cameroon curry inside.  A tasty, healthy, biodegradable bit of home-made  fast food.  Maybe look out for it at Glastonbury next year, and certainly at the Relaunch of Sneinton Market 10th Dec!!

Alain and Nkono are down at the Goose fair until Sunday – please go down and try this new product if you can!  They are near the tram end of the main avenue in the Forest Rec that runs across the site from Mansfield over to Forest Rd West.

Hi all
We  think and hope you will agree that  Stonebridge City Farm is a
treasure which belongs to the people of Nottingham. Entrance is free
and we would like to keep it that way but the farm needs the support
of the people to ensure its existence. For just £10 a year or two
hours voluntary work a year you can become a member of “Green Street –
Friends of the Farm” and play a part in  protecting the farm. Details
of joining are attached and you can print the form, choose your option
and post it in to me or drop it off at the farm next time you are in.
Please also pass on to anybody who may be interested.  The 2 hours
voluntary work contribution can vary depending on what you would like
to  offer – from helping in the garden, maintenance work, baking or
helping at events, to give some ideas.

The half-price edible plants offer for Green Street is now finished.
Instead we will be providing limited monthly special offers and
Friends will be the first to hear of these offers. Workshops and
activities with limited numbers will be offered to Friends first.

Contact me if you have any questions and looking forward to seeing you
on the farm soon.
Best wishes
Audrey
