The Food Plymouth Community of Dragons is happening TOMORROW - there's still time to sign up to join us and support The Hedgerow Hound, aquaponics enterpreneur Richard Deakin and Leadworks CIC from 6-8pm at the Community Climate Centre.

Each enterprise will share their story before our friendly audience of 'community dragons' (which could include you!) pledge offers of support of all kinds to help them take their next steps. It's all about collaboration and co-operation, not competition - each enterprise is already a winner.

Everyone can be a community dragon. If you're keen to support Plymouth's local good food economy and have contacts, resources, time or skills you might be happy to share, we'd love to see you there!

It’s just two days to go until the Food Plymouth Community of Dragons! So who are the fabulous three food organisations set to pitch? Drum roll, please! 🥁

Introducing The Hedgerow Hound, an independent family-run vegan street food vendor serving up hedgerow inspired world food. With a seriously impressive commitment to sustainability already, they have exciting plans to do even more in the near future.

Next up is Richard Deakin, a Liskeard-based entrepreneur on a mission to create opportunities for employment and education through an innovative aquaponics business that will help boost local food security and contribute to sustainable food supply chains.

Completing our trio of pitchers is Leadworks CIC, home to Stonehouse Community Fridge in partnership with The Kintsugi Project, a café/public living room and much more besides. As a much-loved community hub offering a warm welcome to all, they want to be able to support as many people as possible this winter and beyond.

Inspired to learn more about them and maybe even lend your support this Friday 25 November from 6-8pm at the Community Climate Centre? Register to join us as a Community Dragon here now: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-food-plymouth-community-of-dragons-tickets-453811762197
