Write a diary to receive £20 FREE local produce from fresh-range plus win a Sims Hill veg box!!
Bristol Food Network have teamed up again with Knowle West Media Centre and the Bristol Food Connections Festival to bring you the “Good Food Diaries”.
It’s your chance to show off what you’re doing between 1st & 9th May towards making Bristol a truly sustainable food city.
There are loads of topics you can cover in your diary – here are a few examples:
– If you shop in supermarkets all the time, why not try shopping independently for the duration of the festival?
– If you never cook, aim to cook from scratch for a few days.
– Sow some veg seeds!
– See if you can avoid wasting food for 10 days.
Still need inspiration? Check out Kristin’s diary about shopping with Bristol Pounds from last year.
How do you get involved?
- Sign-up to MyBristol and create your profile, adding a short biog.
- Write your first blog post. In the “Title” field give a name to your challenge (e.g. Shop Local challenge), then in “Description” tell us a bit more about what you’re going to be doing during Food Connections for your Good Food Challenge. Add a photo.
- Add the tag “Good Food Diaries” (and any others you think are appropriate)
- Click on “Post”
- After 1st May, get blogging!
For full instructions on how to sign up to MyBristol, please go here.
Anyone who signs-up and makes at least one blog post between 1st & 9th May will be entered into our prize draw (please see T&Cs below).
You can sign-up any time between now and 9th May, but if you’re a late arrival, you may like to set yourself a once-a-month challenge, with your first month being May.
You could win…
A lovely fresh seasonal basket of veg from Sims Hill Shared Harvest!
Sims Hill Shared Harvest is a community-supported agriculture project that provides local vegetables in Bristol raised using natural farming methods.
Similar to a veg box supplier, but member-owned and co-operatively run by and for our members.
