SUMMARY:Community Food Hub
DESCRIPTION:We redistribute fresh foods from Foodprint and Sanatan Food Bank\, saving their surplus veg from going straight to landfill. \n\nPop in during the regular Sumac Sunday Brunch or Wednesday pop-up cafe & warm hub\, or at other times on our events diary.\n\n\n\nSUMAC FOOD REDISTRIBUTION\nFREE – PLEASE TAKE WHAT YOU CAN USE OR SHARE\n\nFood is a right\, not a privilege.\n\n\nFood poverty\, the inability to afford\, or to have access to\, food to make up a healthy diet\, affects 8-9% of the UK population. [Ref: Sustain]\n\n\nFood loss and waste accounts for 8-10% of annual global greenhouse gas emissions. [Ref: United Nations UNFCCC]\n\n\nThe Sumac Community can play a valuable role in tackling food waste.\n\nSurplus foods are shared with Sumac by Sanatan Food Bank and FoodPrint. As well as being good for the Sumac Community\, we provide a valued service to them by helping reduce their waste\, which would otherwise go to landfill or incineration. \nThis\, together with an option of sharing our surplus with Sherwood Exchange and local animal rescues\, gives SIX opportunities for these foods to be consumed! \nIt is the obsession with perfection by the food industry and supermarkets that is driving the food waste crisis.\nThe planet benefits by surpluses being diverted from landfill\, even if it ultimately ends up making compost for the Sumac Garden. \nfood.gov.uk recommends a visual check or the ‘smell test’ to assess the quality of fruit and veg\, or packaged foods with a ‘best before‘ date. Packaged foods should not be given or taken if past its ‘use-by‘ date. Our volunteers make every effort to check that everything is edible\, vegan and not subject to an ethical boycott. Please draw any inappropriate goods to our attention. \nWe need more help. \nIf you value this initiative\, please ask how you can support our work. \n\nFor more information see the Community Food Hub post by Veggies.\n\nYou could also read or share the latest version of the Sumac Food Redistribution flier.\n

SUMMARY:Sumac Library and Bookstall + Rainbow Archive
DESCRIPTION:The Sumac Centre has its own small library\, which people are free to browse when the Centre is open. \nThe library covers a range of topics from anarchism\, animal rights\, political and social theory\, race\, gender and class\, environment and ecology\, activism\, to journalism and history and more. \nWe also welcome offers of help in helping to keep the Library (& book stall) organised. \nSumac also hosts the Veggies Book Stall\, available whenever the Centre is open. Their are books and journals for reference and for sale covering green\, human rights\, animal issues\, anti-war\, co-operation and social justice. Some are available via Veggies online store. \nWe have started a catalogue of books in the library and another of journals and other archives. \nWe are working with the Sparrows Nest Library. They are adopting our huge wealth of pre-digital campaign resources from the 1980s & 90s. They hope to make our archives publically available\, or at least catalogued. \nFor the Public Catalogue search for “Rainbow Centre” and Rainbow archives detailed listing. \nSee also “Raiubow Centre” at the Internet Archive  \n  \nSupport this project\nWe need to raise £400 for the next part of our archiving work. If you can help with a small donation please DONATE via https://sumac.org.uk/get-involved/donate/ \n \nMore information on the Sumac Library\, including it’s Rainbow Centre pre-history\, may be seen at https://sumac.org.uk/get-involved/library-bookshop/
