Environmental charity Feedback, pay as you feel café and local heroes Real Junk Food Manchester and a host of other local organisations have joined together to help Manchester spring into action against food waste. Continuing on the good work of Mary Ellen McTague and her merry band of ‘waste food’ chefs, this all day celebration of the bounty of Spring includes a free lunch made from surplus fresh ingredients, a family friendly ‘alternative market’ in Sadler’s Yard, kid’s activities and other workshops, as well as film screenings and Q&As about what you can do to help stop the mass wastage of food in Britain. In the evening there will be a ‘disco chop’ at PLANT NOMA where revellers will be invited to co-create a free feast from fresh, top quality produce that would have otherwise been wasted. All the while dancing to a disco, funk and soul beat from local DJs and enjoying a fully stocked bar from Runaway Brewery and Toast Ale. Waste not, want not.
Sat 10 Mar, Sadler’s Yard and PLANT NOMA, Hanover Street, NOMA, Manchester M60 0AB, 11am-11pm, FREE, register at www.eventbrite.co.uk
