EDUCATION
Community eduction with the co-op Harvest Workers Co-op based in Okehampton runs the Harvest Farm Shop in Red Lion Yard and regular community education projects and events. All its work Is based on growing an understanding and involvement in the production and use of local, seasonal, organic food. It has been interesting responding to the challenges of COVID. The Co-op has been learning to create online content and video editing alongside the supply of fresh organic produce to the community!
Cooking workshops Recipes are being collected that use simple and seasonal ingredients in interesting ways. Katie’s Mother Hubbard’s Hash Browns are really tasty way to use calabrese stalks! www. harvestworkerscoop.org.uk/site/growing-plot-to-cooking-pot/ hashbrowns/
Seasonal family workshops These are a mix of gardening activities, creative, seasonal cooking and storytelling. Usually based at the wonderful EcoHub next to Okehampton College, they are now being presented online through words, images and video.
September’s workshop will be about Autumn Apples. The details will depend on the guidelines that time but keep Saturday, September 26th free! There is a growing online storytelling collection taken from the family workshops at www.harvestworkerscoop.org.uk/site/ seasonal-tales/ The co-op hopes to offer face to face family workshops in the autumn. Please keep an eye on social media or email for information.
