Paul Clarke Pays Us A Visit

Last night Paul Clarke, founder of Incredible Edible and man of many talents, stopped buy to have a chat with us (it was too informal and interesting to be a presentation or lecture) about why he started the Incredible Edible project, how it has expanded and infuenced other communities worldwide, and how local communities can solve their own problems, both socially and economically.

To say it was inspiring would be and understatement, as he mentioned guerilla orchards in Lidl car parks, temporary sand bag farms in Berlin and High School Fish-farming.

I will add in links as I pick them up, as he provided information on a vast wealth of online resources, although his emphasis was clear; keep a community project about the needs of the community.


After our half-hour 'seminar' everyone present (Paul included) proceeded to stuff themselves with all the food prepared by the volunteers, although there were a couple of the 8 apple cakes left at the end...!

A massive thanks to Neston Primary School for hosting the event, the volunteers for growing/making the food and setting up the room, St.Michael's Church for the loan of their kitchen facilities, Paul Clarke for his presentation and most importantly everyone that turned up to support our project!
