Reclaim the Fields South West Gathering

Reclaim the Fields | 07.07.2011 19:18 | Ecology | Social Struggles

The first gathering for Reclaim the Fields South West will be happening on the weekend of the 6th -7th August in Bristol.



The gathering will take place at The Factory, a squatted space and social centre at 2-8 Cave Street, St Pauls, Bristol ( http://freefactory.wordpress.com). Food and accommodation is available.

Reclaim the Fields is a constellation of young people and collective projects willing to go back to the land and reassume the control over food production. We are determined to create alternatives to capitalism through cooperative, collective, autonomous, real needs oriented small scale production and initiatives, putting theory into practice and linking local practical action with global political struggles. For more info see:  http://www.reclaimthefields.org/
Confirmed workshops include how to access land, liberation permaculture, women and food production, Community Supported Agriculture structures and manifestos for community ownership. Visits to local growing projects will also take place.

There will be opportunities to meet, network and discuss "Are we ready to step up and take control of food production?" and how do we make this happen in the South West.

Help is still needed before and during the weekend. For more information and to get involved please email:  frankynecklace@yahoo.co.uk

All are welcome, spread the word, resistance is fertile.
