RECLAIM YOUR FOOD THE 3TH FEBRUARY 2008
After more or less two months of « Reclaim Your Food », we wtart to have a good group of activists. We met each-other this sunday 3 February at home ( 3 Northway Road, SE5 9AN, Brixton ) around 10 / 10, 30 am. We began to talk and have a coffee or tea.
We had already some vegetabls from New Covent Garden Market, than we skip last Firday morning. We had a lot of tomatos, some carrot, patatos, celery, oignon, cariand,... Then we made a big soup into a nice atmospher. Our neigtbour made for us a amazing lentils soup and gave for us some bread and crisps from the skip. Stephane a Food Not Bombs activist brought a excellent cake as well. And for the desert with the apple than Kairos brought, we cooked one apple pie, one apple cake, and one realy good crumble.
Is 2,30 pm, we are ready to serv for free!
We went to Brixton Town square to serve the food just in front of the Ritzy cinema. When we arrived (around 3pm) there was no people on the place. But after to instal the stall, the people started to come. Around 30 people came to eat all a long the day. As usual we are some homeless and junkies who were really happy to eat something hot for free, also some curious people and of course some friends.
We gave as well some leaflte about « Reclaim Your Food », also some more about how squatting in London, etc... and we talk a lot with people to explain why we do this action. Generaly the people were really enjoy about the food and this action.
All the day we had a lot of fun even with the cold. We left the place around 6/7 pm all the pots was almost
empty, and we were happy !
