About
Us
Locavore,
which means “eater of local food”, is an organisation
that exists to take forward projects which contribute to creating
sustainable local food economies. We believe we need to re-think
our relationship with food, from the way it is produced to the
way it is cooked, eaten, and disposed off. By changing our relationship
with food we can reduce the negative impact it has on the environment
while improving our health, our economy, our communities and
our happiness!
We're
currently focusing our efforts on the south-side of Glasgow
from our Skirving Street Hub in Shawlands. As well as leading
projects from our Shawlands Hub we're keen to work with other
groups and organisations on projects which take forward our
objectives. We believe by working together with communities
and other organisations we can test and consolidate the projects
and actions needed to create food systems which are fit for
the future.
