FoodCycle Mitcham was buzzing tonight with 32 guests around the table! On the menu: cheesy pizza with wedges, a fragrant Thai green curry, and a beautiful apple tarte fine to finish things off in style. The kitchen team worked like clockwork, turning out plate after plate with plenty of smiles along the way. Guests were well fed, conversation flowed, and that apple tarte fine definitely earned a few extra “oohs” and “aahs.” Another brilliant evening of good food and good company.
Operating every Thursday evening at the Togetherness Community Centre in Mitcham, the project welcomes guests from all walks of life to share a hot meal and engage in friendly conversation in a warm, inclusive environment. The meals are prepared by dedicated volunteers using surplus food collected from local supermarkets and grocers, ensuring that perfectly edible food is diverted from landfill and put to good use. Volunteers take on various roles, including cooking, hosting, and food collection, all contributing to the creation of a welcoming space where guests can enjoy both nourishment and companionship. By fostering connections among community members and promoting sustainability, FoodCycle Mitcham not only provides immediate support to those facing hardship but also works towards building a more resilient and connected local community.
