Growing Glasgow begins with an interactive workshop from the GUEST team, University of Glasgow. Inviting you to share thoughts on your favourite meals and how we can make them more sustainable. 

 

Followed by two film screenings, Feeding the City by Zev Robinson, and the animation From Food Poverty to Food Sovereignty by Trasi Henen.
