A Place for Food in Public Spaces - Wisdom from community builders

Upcoming webinar: Thursday, July 3, 2014 12-1 p.m. EDT

Join Community Food Centres Canada in a webinar that will explore different
ways community-builders are using food programs like community gardens,
markets, public suppers, and bake ovens to animate local parks. We’ll
highlight how the principles of placemaking can transform public spaces by
highlighting local assets and serving common needs.

On the panel are Jutta Mason, who for over 20 years has led the
transformation of Dufferin Grove Park
<http://dufferinpark.ca/home/wiki/wiki.php> to a vibrant,
community-supported park, and Sabina Ali, who alongside a Women's Committee
in her culturally diverse neighbourhood of Thorncliffe Park, started a
plein air South Asian bazaar and community Tandoor oven. Moderator Liz
Curran, the Manager of the Regent Park Community Food Centre
<http://www.tcrc.ca/creating-community/community-food-centre> at CRC, is
developing a suite of food programs to animate the newly re-developed
Regent Park neighbourhood, including gardens, a greenhouse, and bake ovens.

In the meantime, if you’re interested in whetting your appetite leading up
to the webinar, we recently wrote a piece about
<http://thepod.cfccanada.ca/blog/regent-parks-community-gardens-grow-new-roots>
how Regent Park Community Food Centre is undertaking placemaking in a
nearby public park; and if you’d like to learn more about how community
gardening programs work in the context of a Community Food Centre, have a
look at our info-packed module on the topic
