A documentary that hopes to ‘change the way Londoners buy food’ uses CHUG’s work with the allotment as an example of people who are working to make healthy, local and sustainably produced food accessible to everyone. The film will premiere on the 15th July at the Gallery Café in Bethnal Green. The independent film features award winning journalist Felicity Lawrence, scholars Tim Lang and Jason Moore, and UK farmer Michael Duveen.
An article announcing the Telegraph’s third “Gardening Against the Odds Awards”, describes the Allotment barge, which was enabled in collaboration with the Shoreditch Trust and Capital Growth, as a good example of gardening in an inhospitable environment.
