THIS IS FOOD RUBBISH: FROME
| DATE: | 16th June 2023 |
| TIME: | 7pm |
| LOCATION: | Rye Bakery, Whittox Lane, Frome |
Join the Frome Food Network in BIG GREEN WEEK for an unforgettable meal exploring a myriad of foraged, reclaimed and rediscovered ingredients!
A communal multicourse meal, conceived as an edible conversation between two contemporary food artists.
Through This Food is Rubbish, Cherry Truluck (based in Frome) and Annalee Levin (Huish Episcopi) explore food that is overlooked, misunderstood and wasted in the 30 miles of Somerset countryside that lies between them. In this unique artist-led event, they seek out the roots of wastefulness in our food systems and celebrate the practices that are asking “how might we think, eat and farm differently if we took a zero waste approach to food and drink?”
This is the first collaborative event of the two artists, who met as residents of Delfina Foundation’s Politics of Food programme and have worked as professional chefs for major restaurants and arts organisations. Both make work which deals with climate transition and the way it is impacted by food’s role as a tangible, cultural and philosophical connection between the body and the land.
This Food is Rubbish is hosted by sustainability-focused Rye Bakery in their beautiful home in a converted chapel on Whittox Lane in Frome. It is supported by Frome Food Network and historic family-run pub Eli’s in Huish Episcopi of which Annalee is the current Landlady.
