About


We're a Northants community action responding to food inequality, poverty & social isolation. We cook & share locally sourced, free food. 


We are a diverse group made of migrants, queers, no fix abode folk, youth and elders. We believe that better world is possible and it's within our reach. We are no longer waiting, we are living as the world we want is already here.

If you're impatient like us, and have ideas on what you would like your town to be like, pop over for a tea, hot meal and a chat. Join us. 🫀
