Open Gate Festival - connecting people to locally produced, nutritious food, with farmers, market gardens, community groups and home growers all opening their gates to visitors for tours, talks and tastings, as well as skills-based workshops

Too Good To Waste - our local campaign, with Aberfeldy Climate Cafe, to help businesses, groups and households in reducing food waste

Growing in Aberfeldy - a local network of growers, helping to encourage and support each other and in particular newbies to grow some food at home. Skills workshops are also held, such as growing mushrooms, fruit tree planting and maintenance, how to start your own veg garden, and the no-dig method
-
The Aberfeldy Manifesto - a call to action advocating that everyone should have reliable access to fresh, nutritious, affordable food. We are also working with Bioregioning Tayside and PKC to help inform and develop a Local Food Plan, as part of the obligations of Scotland's Good Food Nation Act

Cooking workshops - provided various times of the year, including in our Winter Boost campaign. We hope to inspire and equip people to cook from scratch more often. There is even a local tool library where you can borrow kitchen equipment. Recent workshops include preserving gluts, cheesemaking and foraging walk and cooking
