FRIDAY 10:00AM–10:45AM. Larder will open at 9:30am for refreshments. It is a Food Membership Scheme. From £3.50 a week members can choose from 10 food items in boxes and tins and jars, and as much fruit and vegetables as they want. It is not means tested – open to all, and aims to help some people who are finding food too expensive. The food – that would otherwise go to waste because of reasons such as oversupply - comes from supermarkets like Tesco and Asda. The larder is part of the charity SOFEA. They not only help stop food waste, but also provide training for young people who did not get the best out of education and need practical skills before getting into employment.

Our menu is comprised of health giving whole foods -grains, beans and pulses -and our aim is to encourage everyone -even meat eaters- that a vegetarian meal can be both nutritious and delicious. All food is freshly prepared by a small band of volunteers who share our values. As a social, community enterprise we are a not-for profit venture. We seek out ingredients which are fairly traded. Our motto is......'Good for the planet, good for you!' https://BlueSkyEcoCafe.org.uk
we want to continue trying out new delicious recipes with unusual whole grains, nuts, lentils, beans etc to encourage people to eat less meat and still enjoy a nutritious and tasty meal. each month we aim to give nutritional information on a specific wholefood grain used in a recipe.

Our honey is raw and unheated, preserving its health benefits. As natural beekeepers, we focus on the bees' welfare and aim to contribute to a strong local gene pool. We promote natural beekeeping and raise public awareness of environmental campaigns through our website and blogs.
We aim to meet the demand for local, unadulterated honey. We will also further raise public awareness about the importance of honey bees and other pollinators for ecosystems and the food chain, and highlight the perils that bees face from pesticides, habitat loss, unhealthy commercial beekeeping practices, and climate change.

Our food surplus café provides cooking courses that showcase local, seasonal ingredients. Café menus have included incredibly popular dishes such as coconut chickpea curry, falafel and pumpkin hummus with fresh salad, climatarian shepherd’s pie, and more! The café runs on love and donations. We accept donations on a “give what you can” basis, but we do also include suggested prices on our menus. Our carbon costing system integrates education into every dining experience. Carbon prices are £1/ car-mile carbon footprint equivalent, which is in keeping with our guiding principle of keeping it green and keeping it clean.

Cornerstone runs at The Corner House in Market Street, at the centre of Charlbury and we are open Monday – Saturday 10am -1pm. You can come and help yourself to local and surplus fruit and vegetables, and often other surplus foods. We work with Charlbury Deli, Chloes, Oxford Food Hub and SOFEA to access surplus food as well as other local sources. Our community food shelf is always stocked for people to help themselves from when they need to. Second hand books, games and jigsaws are available for a small donation and we run a school uniform exchange for Charlbury Primary School uniform. Food support can be provided for households needing a bit of help during a challenging financial time. For information or to self-refer please email cornerstone@charlburychurch.uk

Cutteslowe Community Larder is at Cutteslowe Community Association every Wednesday, 14:00 -16:00. The Cutteslowe Community Larder is a weekly community hub, that has at the heart of it a membership based community larder supported by the charity SOFEA. The Cutteslowe Community Larder obtains food from SOFEA, who rescue (from suppliers / supermarkets) and re-distribute hundreds of tonnes of food surplus each year, supporting families in need while reducing food waste. The Cutteslowe Community larder is run by volunteers and is a partnership between SOFEA and Cutteslowe Connected Church and Cutteslowe Community Association. The vision for this larder is that it will, combat food poverty, reduce food waste and help build community. It was initially set up around a food larder, but increasingly more and more “wrap around” services have been added, including: Citizens Advice drop in session, a community café which offers a free, healthy, hot lunch and an opportunity to help out with an allotment project each week. The Cutteslowe Community Larder seeks to provide food to the community at low cost, in order to combat food poverty and to reduce food waste. This membership is open to anyone and is not means tested. Members pay a monthly fee via direct debit and will come to the larder weekly to select the food that they would like. A single membership is £3.50 per week for 10 items + fruit and veg and a family membership is £7 per week for 20 items + fruit and veg.

We are a new community-led project which seeks to create an opportunity for people to connect with nature and each other in the Cutteslowe area. We are working to secure a lease on the greenhouses located in the centre of Cutteslowe Park, as a base for our future activities. In the meantime, we put on regular events in the area, with the aim of strengthening existing community connections and learning nature-related skills from each other. Events include food surplus cafe-style community lunches, guided nature-spotting and foraging walks, and community orchard work parties. We are interested in all nature-related skills, but food makes up a substantial part of our activities, and sustainable growing and cooking will be a big part of our future activities. Our goal is to strengthen community resilience in the area, through more community connections, skills, and resources to grow, process and share organic, sustainable, culturally appropriate and healthy food.
To help people in the community share their skills around cooking with food that might otherwise go to waste. To help people improve their confidence and skills when it comes to growing and processing their own fruit and veg.
