Green Gathering 2024 – Chepstow

Join us for four days of low impact living at the Green Gathering in an area of outstanding beauty, every nook and corner bursting with music, creativity, natural abundance and community spirit.

The original off-grid, non-profit festival: we’re powered by sun, wind, people and passion for change.

As well as #FoodByVeggies the Green Gathering features many free workshops, including free vegan cookery demonstrations – with samples – by Food for a Future.

Intimate solar stages showcase up and coming acts, legendary festival favourites, DJs and spellbinding raconteurs. Share wisdom and skills; find friends old and new; weave, weld and tell stories.

Have a party – then wake up and put the world to rights. This festival’s impact lasts longer than a weekend.

Call Out for Workshops at @GreenGathering_

If you’ve been before or not, given a workshop before or not, we encourage anyone engaged in the struggle for a better world to send us a proposal for one or more workshops in the Campaigns area on your cause. We always give priority to direct action campaigns that are looking to mobilise people, but we are open to all kinds of related topics around that. Please get in touch with any questions or just email your proposal to greengatheringcampaigns@gmail.com

Veggies Food is Here

Here at Veggies we are continuing to push forward our minimal packaging  policies – extending the use of proper mugs to serving soft drinks in returnable beakers, to reduce use of single use plastics & straws.  We have now established distribution of our Ethical Consumer Best Buy Burger/Sosage Mixes to many other caterers to help raise their ethical sourcing and ended the production of frozen foods.

 

Sumac Centre Anniversary Weekender

sumac/images/dovelogo.gifNottingham’s Rainbow Centre opened at 180 Mansfield Road on 9th September 1985, the co-operative having been established on 9th April 1984 by campaigners for peace, animal rights, human rights, civil liberties and the environment. /moving/oldrainb.jpg

Veggies Catering Campaign (established 18th October 1984) moved in from Earthwise (the FoE Shop next door) when it closed, later taking on the day-to-day running of the centre.

From the Rainbow Centre base plans were hatched for the purchase of a permanent campaign base, which was opened as the Sumac Centre, in Forest Fields/New Basford on June 22nd 2002.

Earth First! Summer Gathering 2024

 Respect existence or expect resistance!

30th ever EarthFirst! Summer Gathering in the UK!

The summer gathering will take place 24-29th of July on a beautiful apple orchard near Shrewsbury.

Five days of skill-sharing for grassroots ecological direct action – make links, share ideas, and get involved in the struggles against open cast coal, fracking, new roads, HS2, climate criminals and more.

The Earth First! Summer Gathering is the place where people involved in radical ecological direct action – or those who want to be involved – get together for five days of time and space to talk, walk, share skills, learn, play, rant, find out what’s going on, find out what’s next, live outside, strategise, hang out, incite, laugh and conspire.

The workshops, networking and planning of actions at this low impact eco-living camp is organised non-hierarchically. It’s run without leaders by everyone who comes along, so come prepared to chip in!

There will be a kids’ space and programme, more info to follow! If you intend on bringing a dog friend, please let us know beforehand – there is limited space for dogs!

If you have specific accessibility needs please get in touch with us (earthfirstuk [at] riseup.net).

The schedule will be on display and you will be given a printed copy upon arrival. Spoiler alert – it will be amazing.

Veggies Catering Campaign are likely to be helping with the campaign catering.

There will be three meals a day, a cafe space with tea, coffee and cake– but it might be good to bring more bits and bobs if you know you might feel snacky in between meals. We ask everyone to leave a donation if you can (cash only!), but no-one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Those taking their first steps into ecological campaigning are warmly welcomed. There will be debates, discussions on campaign planning, updates, support and solidarity, tactics, strategies, community building, sustainable activism and networking including groups campaigning against fracking, incineration, new roads, GM (genetic engineering), animal exploitation and much more.
