Join us on the land as we come together to celebrate cultural food traditions, through collective cooking, conversation and learning. 

For our last session (of this month!), we are joined by Safiya Robinson founder of sisterwoman who will lead participants through the creation of personalised recipe boxes filled with their own unique spice blends and marinades. Along with the spice blends, each participant will also write or illustrate their own recipe card to accompany the spices, telling the story behind the blend, what it represents, and any personal memories or cultural significance. The recipe boxes will include a dry spice blend, a fermented hot sauce, a pickle, a recipe card and basic ingredients to finish their chosen dish. The recipe boxes are designed to foster community and connection as participants are invited to cook the dish at home with a loved one.

Tickets are free and live from Monday 20th July at 7pm. Get a ticket here.

Our third session with Safiya is on Saturday 25th July at the garden from 11am - 2pm.

Safiya Robinson (also known as sisterwoman) is a chef, interdisciplinary facilitator and culinary artist exploring food as a relational technology of care.

Inspired by her Black American, Jamaican, and British heritage, her culinary focus centres deeply considered plant forward soul food through a distinctly London lens. She also hosts and produces The Intentional Nourishment Podcast, which expands this work through dialogue with other chefs, artists and thinkers.
