Have you heard of Food not Bombs?

One of the best idea of the past 30 years! very simple: a bunch of people getting together, getting vegetables and other stuff from bins or donated, cooking it altogether and giving it for free to anyone in the streets!!

How simpler, better and more rewarding could it be? Using waste of capitalism and surplus production to feed people you've never seen before with delicious vegan food :)

Places: hackney

FNB

Let's create a new vibrant group in Hackney!

There used to be very active Food Not Bombs groups in London but things became less regular now.

A bunch of us would like to get things started again!
We have a great place to cook (an amazing space in Hackney), we've got most of the cooking gear, we've got places where to skip and get food from... all we need is people and energy!

If you're interested, come to the meeting on the 10th of december 8pm, 195 Mare St, Hackney.

Let's try to keep the meeting short!
This is what we thought we could talk about and get on with the real thing:
- What is Food not Bombs for us, why doing it? We're probably interested in the FNB project for a lot of different reasons, and thats great! we just thought that talking about it and knowing where other people stand is a nice way to start.
- What does it mean practically to do FNB? (things like skipping, making sure that the place where we cook is accessible, cooking, serving and very important: the cleaning!!)
- when do we start doing it!?!? and how frequently!?

Bring food to share!!
