My hope is that we can create a food hub venue, which will help diverse sectors of the community to come together to extend a mutually supportive sustainable local food system. I want to continue to work with others to participate in building our community’s food resilience. 

I’m a lover of healthy food, the arts, connecting people and making the world better, kinder and safer.

I’m passionate about groups that are rooted in community and it is this sense of community and working together, towards a sustainable greater good for our town that inspires me.                            

As an organic market gardener I’m passionate about producing nutritious food in a sustainable way. Working with Bridport Food Matters to help increase access to good food for everyone in our community, and grow our local food economy, is very exciting.

I grew up in my parents’ Polish/Italian delicatessen and have a lifelong passion for food, food education and food-related community activities in Bridport. I’m also Events Manager for The Food Foundation.

I was a founder member of Transition Town Bridport, now sustainable Bridport, and am a trustee of Dorset climate Action Network. I think local food is very important to increase the resilience of our town. Healthier food should be available for everyone at a price they can afford.
