Long Table are hosting their first event in a brand new series; Farm Table Talks! This is where we showcase one of the incredible local producers and suppliers that we partner with to bring you delicious, pay-as-you-can meals made with love and care.

On Saturday 11th April at 6pm, we'll join Eric Walters of Good Small Farms and Alex Clark of The Long Table Stroud at the farm table, as they discuss pricing, environmental responsibility, nutrition, and much more!

We all know that sustainably farmed and locally sourced produce is more expensive than industrially farmed and processed food. How are food prices set? Is organically farmed produce a better nutritional deal?  What are the factors that combine to put good food out of reach of so many people, and are there ways we could change that?

With an opportunity for a Q&A as well as a delicious meal featuring seasonal produce from Good Small Farms, this is an evening not to be missed.

Lets create- family friendly fun in the sanctuary space. Turn up, pay as you can, grab a coffee, get messy.
