Food-growing film inspiration at the Biscuit Factory

We attended an INCREDIBLE event hosted by Transition Town Reading on 24th October 2023 at Reading's much-loved Biscuit Factory.

We watched three inspiring films about community, sustainability and resilience.

“The Sequel” about the work of David Fleming work (Lean Logic)

“Together We Grow” a story of Common Unity's amazing community food project in New Zealand.

“Earth Action Challenge” about about a local eco-action event held at Reading’s own Lavender Place Community Gardens.

After we were treated to a panel discussion. What if they could wave a magic wand? 🪄

Tracey Rawling-Church (pictured far left), Co-chair of the Reading Climate Change Partnership would like to:

Reconnect people with food in the most deprived areas of Reading to help with health and wellbeing.

Professor Chris Rhodes (pictured middle), Director of Fresh-lands Environmental Actions, and Chair of Transition Town Reading would like:

All buildings to be insulated and spare land given to grow food to help build community.

Natalie Ganpatsingh (pictured far right), Director of Nature Nurture would like to:

Bring together health and nature to tackle inequalities. Did you know that Reading has a great green wellbeing network, such as Forest Schools!
