Arun & Chichester Good Food Fortnight programme now available

The programme is now available for the first ever Good Food Fortnight held in Arun and Chichester, September 20 to October 6. It includes a wide range of exciting free activities, from regular opportunities to special events – even a special offer from veg-box provider Wayside Organics.

From farm visits to cookery workshops, and food pantries to community orchards – there is something for everyone! The programme, available on the Food Partnership website, lists events from a variety of businesses and organisations all working towards creating a better food system for all.

The Good Food Fortnight aims to celebrate local organisations that improve access to food and alleviate food poverty as well as encourage growing, cooking and eating together as a community. It will also spotlight food businesses that champion local, sustainable and affordable food and encourage conversations and action to improve our local food system.

“We have a vibrant community with many people working towards everyone having enough good food, now and in the future," said Arun & Chichester Food Partnership co-chair, Pam Busby.

"From charities and community groups which provide free food or community meals as well as food education, to the people who grow and serve delicious local food, to the community growing spaces where everyone can join in, to the work to reduce the environmental impact of the food system, we want to gather and celebrate all the great things about food in Arun & Chichester.”
