Feedback Global is pleased to announce a £237,522 grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund to explore and record the food and farming heritage of Knowsley and secure it for future generations with a permanent home at the Knowsley Archives in Kirkby.
They want to create a better food future in Knowsley by using inspiration from the past. They will engage diverse resident groups about the area’s food and farming heritage using education, participation, research and activities. They want to celebrate the area’s distinct farming and food heritage from 50+ years ago. This heritage is at risk of disappearing, so preserving it and bringing it to life for residents of all ages will enable everyone to access it in the future.
Volunteers, local groups, college students and schools will be able to take part in the project through creative, celebratory and investigative activities and events led by expert practitioners, allowing people from across Knowsley to enjoy and play a part in recording the farming heritage.
They will be actively recruiting for volunteers to work with them, please go to their website www.alchemickitchen.org for more details and to connect with their community team
