All are invited to attend our last of five Cheap & Easy Climate Emergency Cookery Workshops (details below). Once again, we’ll be showing how to make several low-cost, healthy & easy-to-make plant-based dishes that minimise the food’s contribution to climate change… and maximise kindness. Free samples of the food prepared in the workshop will be offered to workshop participants along with recipes for each dish.
