Talking about Food: West Coast Organics, Roag

How can we create a more sustainable food system in Skye, Raasay and Lochalsh?

Following the successful visit to Raasay’s Walled Garden earlier this month, we are now going to visit another inspirational site: West Coast Organics. West Coast Organics was established at Roag in 2015 and currently grows organic vegetables for around 55 households on Skye who get a weekly organic veg box.

Come along on 9th July
13:30-15:30 for a tour of the gardens by the growers Anna and Hanno
15:45-16:45 for a discussion facilitated by Skye Climate Action.

The food system includes everything from production, through transport and packaging, purchase and preparation, to waste minimisation and composting. It impacts on health, environment, pollution, climate, food access and affordability, the local economy and community resilience.

How can we support one another to optimise our local food system for residents and planet?
Be inspired by the tour, and then join in the conversation afterwards. All welcome.

If you would like to attend the event you must RSVP to westcoastcroft@gmail.com as spaces are limited.
