About Vegecoopia & Co-Growing
​Vegecoopia is a community interest company established in April 2023, a day after The International Day of Peasant Struggles. The name Vegecoopia is about growing Vegetables in a Cooperative way to create a Utopia :)
​
As an agri-food educational organisation based in Kingston upon Thames, we aim to build community bonds and resilience through sustainable food practices. We achieve this by growing, sharing, and redistributing food locally — particularly through our community shop "The Honey Pot", food gardening, cultural cooking events, and nature-based art and craft workshops.
We believe in food-growing and community-building with
Dignity, Autonomy, and Sovereignty;
DAS the essence of community-supported agriculture (CSA). ​
Together, we can:
Discover more food growing space
For space owners, thanks for turning back gardens into edible ones, creating more green space for both yourselves and the growers in need;​
For growers without space, we will walk you through the journey of exploring community food growing space together.
Access the skills and knowledge of growing culturally appropriate food
Let's make food growing common among migrant communities in the UK, also develop a diverse growers' network when we are sharing our culturally vibrant veggies here!
Save Your Own Seeds, Grow Your Own Food
​
It's all about food security and seed sovereignty. Through the sustainably and locally grown food, we also appreciate growers' labour effort.
