We're farmers, gardeners, cooks and eaters fighting for a healthy, fair and delicious food supply. Join us.

I thought my most bourgeois injury of the week was cutting my finger opening a tub of Waitrose crème fraîche (for the second time this year). But then a mustard seed sprung out of a hot pan and landed in my eye while making Ottolenghi’s tamarind rice. Not sure where I go next.

Sick of gambling ads & junk food ads on children's tv?

Our research shows most people would support an ad ban via @finbaromallon

Everyone should have the chance of a healthy life, so protecting children from unhealthy ads from multinational food corporations is a good step. Well done @SophieScamps

I bought a mini pottery wheel before lockdown. Over 4 months, I made 3 chook head plates (+ 6 in progress), 69 mini foods, and 16 mini food platters. I think I’ve resolved my chicken bone idea - display them under a bowl - so now, to throw one! #ChickenCeramics #incrEdibleMuseum

@DanSaladinoUK congrats on your book! Sounds like an excellent treatment of the subject. Can’t wait to read it.

In Eating to Extinction, Dan Saladino argues that our health, our culture and the environment will suffer unless we broaden our dietary horizons. https://t.co/a7K1oURiQb

[Boyd Swinburn @BoydSwinburn]

Excellent publication on how ultra-processed foods are highly detrimental to the environment, as well as health. Food monocultures and commodification are the antithesis of where agriculture needs to head - agroecology. Find Ultra-Processed Planet at https://t.co/x5tns2B0gs

[Mike Cains @michael_cains]

Farmers want to be part of the solution. They have just as much to gain (if not more) from ensuring energy security, lower running costs and fewer emissions than other sectors. Excluding Ag from zero emissions target would not be ideal.

"As consumers are given the appearance of more choices, actual ownership of these brands is held by a decreasing number of firms behind the scenes." @IPESfood's own Phil Howard shares a blockbuster analysis of Big Meat in @CivilEats https://t.co/gREw3k7sMk

We want #foodsystems4people, that's why we're boycotting the corporate capture of the UN #FoodSystems Summit!

Sign the declaration from social movements and civil society organisations! https://t.co/948UHBdmgR

#UNFSS

[AFSA @Afsafrica]

#UNFSS2021 is promoting false solutions to the food and climate crises.

We call for a shift to #agroecology combining indigenous knowledge with cutting edge science, working with nature, not against nature.
