3 tonnes of apples, pears & plums saved from Kensal to Kilburn in 2025, our best ever year! Instead of rotting in gardens, we gave most to food banks.

We enjoy meeting like-minded people & connecting with food and nature.

Did you grow up knowing about plants you can eat?

I'm looking for people, particularly from other cultures eg Eastern Europe or Middle East, who learned this from family etc and enjoy sharing their story for a few minutes with others as part of a short walk in Kilburn.
