The purpose of this online recipe project is to educate and provide ideas for action about food security and sustainable food systems.
What we hope to:
- make available recipes for community gardeners so they can use the recipes for language training
- provide a resource for the Tasmanian community and school gardeners
- provide links to participating community gardens and school gardens
- list contact details of participating gardens
- provide information about the local Launceston environment.
