About Feed Avalon

Feed Avalon is a workers cooperative and social enterprise dedicated to cultivating local food resilience in Glastonbury, Street and Surrounding areas.

Feed Avalon Description

Feed Avalon CIC is a social enterprise dedicated to creating socially and economically empowering food systems in order to optimise the food resilience of Glastonbury, Street and surrounding areas.

We start and strengthen projects within an intimate area, focusing on Glastonbury, Street and surrounding villages. We aim to support our community to gain skills, confidence and opportunities to engage in the production, distribution and consumption of local food that is healthier, more sustainable and less vulnerable to global instability than the mainstream food chain.

The aim is to develop and support a diverse infrastructure of food-related, community-led activities including new growing spaces, a 'People's Kitchen', a plant nursery, mentoring, skillshares, volunteering, sharing surplus food, public events and diverse accessible community education. More people will be growing a wider diversity of foods, adopting healthier lifestyles and eating habits, buying local produce and supporting local producers in our geographic area.

We organise for food justice and all of our projects are centred on supporting those most harmed by our food and economic system. We aim to widen participation so that everyone is engaged in our food system and transform people’s destinies by creating an abundant culture of opportunities for purposeful, nourishing social and economic activity.
