For a better food future
Fair Food Week 2014 from 10-19 October is celebrating fresh, local, community-driven food enterprises, farmers, community gardeners and eating. There are 85 Fair Food events in every state of Australia during the week.
The Australian Food Sovereignty Alliance (AFSA), which co-ordinates Fair Food Week, is encouraging local communities around the country to showcase their Fair Food work to the wider community. Fair Food Week is a platform enabling communities to organise events according to local priorities.
Fair Food Week 2014 is built around four themes:
* Beyond the Trolley * Support Your Local Community Fair Food Projects and Groups * Grow Our Urban and Peri-Urban Agriculture * Support Gasfield-free Communities.
