We are part of the global SFYNetwork: Connecting young people (18-35) across Scotland who want to create a good, clean & fair food future in Scotland & beyond!
We had a wonderful at Dear Green Coffee Roasters where we were hosted by Lisa who told us all about Coffee and how they select and roast their beans. We were joined by Bryce from West Mossgiel Farm who told us the story of his journey in taking over his family farm and producing non-homogenised milk. See our photos from the event on Facebook here and read more about what we learnt on our blog soon!
This event was a part of the Centre for Contemporary Art’s Cooking Pot programme, check out the amazing line-up of events on their website! Many thanks to everyone who came along, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. HUGE THANKS to Lisa and Bryce for teaching us so much about coffee and milk, from farm to cup!
The Slow Food Youth Network (SFYN) is an international network of young people aged 18-35 who bring about changes in the field of food production and consumption through positive, creative and innovative methods. It was founded by a number of enthusiastic and motivated young people with a passion for good, clean and fair food, and an interest in sustainability issues.
Slow Food Youth Network Scotland was started in 2015 to develop a network of young people across Scotland who wanted to do just that - provide alternative, creative and social opportunities for young people to engage with, and learn about food issues whilst sharing ideas for innovative solutions.
By exploring Scotland’s food system in a fun and social way, supporting local projects and building strong connections with our international network we have begun to bring people together to help create change within the global food system. In our third year we plan to build on our success in a number of ways and are currently setting ourselves up as a Social Enterprise.
