The first Feastside meeting is tomorrow at 7pm in The Woodsman pub on Albert Street, just by Millennium Point. The Feastside project plans to create a city centre vegetable patch in Birmingham’s Eastside (and maybe elsewhere in and around the city), possibly utilising the abandoned/dormant building sites in the area. All are welcome – come along if this sounds like your bag!
