Sutton Community Farm and Sutton Council are serving up a treat this summer – a range of great People’s Kitchen pop-up stalls will be appearing across the borough and bring people together to celebrate great food.

The pop-up stalls will offer activities including cooking demonstrations, food tasting, recipe cards, and games and activities, as well as tips on growing food and healthy living.

The summer schedule starts on Saturday 18 June at the Sutton Farmers’ and Artisan Market on Sutton High Street.

Cllr Colin Stears, Head of the Adult Social Services & Health Committee, said:

“Last year’s People’s Kitchen events proved an overwhelming success with nearly 600 residents taking part in cooking demos over eight roadshow events. I’m really proud to see that the People’s Kitchen is back for 2016. I hope we can beat last year’s impressive figures and reach even more Sutton residents with our message that eating healthily needn’t be a chore and it needn’t be expensive – we can all look at ways to cook healthy meals on a reasonable budget.”

The full line-up of People’s Kitchen pop-up events during summer 2016 and information about the great work the Sutton Community Farm does is on the Sutton People’s Kitchen website.

Veryan Wilkie-Jones, Project Manager of Sutton People’s Kitchen at Sutton Community Farm, said:

“The People’s Kitchen project is one of our highlights of our year here at Sutton Community Farm. It’s a great chance to get out and about and spread our healthy-eating message far and wide across the borough. Last year was fantastic and this year is set to be even better. We look forward to meeting lots of Sutton residents at our pop-up stalls.”
