Climate Crumbs

Do you work for an organisation in Glasgow that regularly runs cooking and/or food growing activities for your community members?

Climate Crumbs is a 2 hour, in-person professional development programme for community workers to learn how to integrate conversations about climate action into existing delivery.

We focus on projects and groups which deliver growing and/or cooking activities. We’ve designed the programme so that you can tap into the actions people are already doing, reframing them as positive for the climate e.g. using lentils as a cheaper alternative to meat is also far less carbon intensive.

By completing Climate Crumbs, you will:

1. have a greater understanding of how both cooking and growing food are positive climate actions
2. have more confidence in bringing in climate activities and discussion topics to your group
3. take away a resource and activity pack to use with your groups and,
4. receive a digital sticker you can use on your website and social media to show your have completed the training

This training is open to anyone who works/ volunteers with a community organisation or school that regularly runs food-related activities. 

We’ve designed the training so that you can tap into the actions people are already doing, reframing them as positive for the climate e.g. using lentils as a cheaper alternative to meat is also far less carbon intensive.

Testimonials

We attended a fantastic workshop yesterday given by Glasgow Community Food Network on growing and cooking as positive climate actions and how we can initiate discussions and activities about climate in our own gardening and cooking sessions. Really informative and useful and reinforced how important our community gardens are. - Inverclyde Community Food Network
