Listen "Local Food - Part 1"
Episode Synopsis
In this first of two episodes looking at local food, we consider the goal of London becoming food self-sufficient.
Mariam Waliji talks about Urban Roots London (the city’s urban farm), On The Move Organics food box delivery program, and the Root Cellar restaurant, as well as food security and the effects of climate change and the pandemic on local food systems.
Mike Bloxam of the London Food Bank outlines the many food rescue programs and on-site growing projects underway at the London Food Bank, that made it the first food bank in Canada to offer 50% fresh food to clients.
