Event Details
Celebrate the launch of The Pumpkin Story book created by Glasgow Community Food Network and Zam’Munda.
Register by Friday 24th November
About the Book
The storybook was created as part of a collaboration between Dinna Gwedeza Likonde, originally from Malawi, and the Glasgow Community Food Network.
The contents of the book are informed by activities carried out by Zam’munda, a community garden in Glasgow which showcases traditional African knowledge and cultivation practices, and their application in Scotland. It also includes words from Chichewa, one of the languages of Malawi.
Photographs and paintings have been contributed by those who look after the Zam’munda garden.
About the Event
The event includes a presentation from Zam’Munda and GCFN, an exhibit of traditional African ingredients, and a book reading.
Participants will be given a copy of the book to take home.
Lunch will be provided.
