This year, World Food Day focuses on the ‘Right to food for a better life and a better future’, emphasising everyone's right to diverse, nutritious, affordable, and safe food—from our fields and markets to our tables.
You are invited to join the Regen Sydney Food Chats to grow a more regenerative local food system for our city. Start by getting your hands in the rich soil of Pocket City Farms and get inspired by three-panel speakers on the theme of World Food Day, all while enjoying a delicious dinner made with locally sourced ingredients.
Event schedule:
5:00-6:45 pm: (OPTIONAL) Join Pocket City Farms Crew to volunteer at the market garden. You'll get your hands in the soil from weeding, seed-raising, planting, watering, mulching, compost-turning and more!
6:30-7:00 pm: Live food system mapping and networking on the theme of "Right to Food for a Better Life and a Better Future."
7:00-7:30 pm: FEAST! Enjoy a sumptuous vegan dinner and informal networking with participants.
7:30-8:30 pm: Panel discussion + Q&A with diverse food system champions.
This event is open to everyone—from those interested in how local food systems intersect with social and ecological issues to those seeking hands-on experience and insights into nutritious, sustainable food practices.
Come and discover local food initiatives, build connections, and help expand our collective resources to grow the regenerative food alliance through the Regen Sydney Food and Farming Project.
