Food Buddies South West 💚

 
In spring 2020 Food Is Fun CIC created what we thought would be a small group to support others with food worries caused by the pandemic.
Now, nearly 3 years on we’ve been on an incredible journey together – baking, trying new recipes, swapping ingredients when they’re unavailable, sharing money saving tips, growing our own fruit and vegetables and sharing our successes, as well as the lessons we have learned. With over 1000 members and hopefully more to follow, head over to the group and join this amazing community!
