Community approach
GCFI use a community development approach where we work with and support local residents to plan and implement projects they want.
What about an allotment?
Grown your own fresh produce on your own patch of land. See
allotments
for details.
Areas of work and examples of projects
Cookery courses & clubs, fruit and vegetable co-ops, food growing & allotments,
commercial catering & community cafes.
Greenwich Community Food Cooperative (GCFC) runs stalls throughout the week at several locations.
The Asian Cookery Clubs are very popular and we are in the process of extending this project to other groups in the community.
GCFI have also been closely involved with the
School meals project
initiated by Jamie Oliver and is working in close partnership with Greenwich Direct Services to support them in long-term sustainable change to the Greenwich school meals service.
The work of GCFI has been recognised outside Greenwich, and a representative has been asked to sit on the new Mayoral body, London Food and the steering group of London Food Link.
