The Scottish Food Coalition encourages people to host a Kitchen Table talk so everyone can have a say on the Good Food Nation Plan.
The Scottish Government’s draft Good Food Nation Plan is out for consultation. Anyone in Scotland can submit their response by 22nd April, but the process for having one’s voice heard can be somewhat intimidating.
To widen participation, the Scottish Food Coalition are encouraging people who care about our food system to host a Kitchen Table Talk. These informal gatherings can be organised by anyone, any time, anywhere, and there are handy resources available to support hosts.
