Splo-Down Food CoOp
This incredible community project offers veggie boxes for just £3.50 and aims to grow community connections!
Splo-Down Community Food Group is a group of neighbours from Splott, Adamsdown and Tremorfa who have come together to meet their own food needs collectively. They purchase and distribute good food affordably, and strengthen community connections as they go.
You can pre-order your stir-fry veggie box or seasonal veg box from Thursday to Sunday via the website, each costing £3.50. Based on the co-op’s ethic of solidarity not charity, they also offer several free veg boxes for anyone struggling to afford food. If you feel comfortable, you can purchase a solidarity veg box for someone else that the organisers will distribute.
The weekly member-run market stall is open at the Oasis Centre courtyard (Splott Road, Cardiff, CF24 2BW) every Wednesday 5pm-7pm for collection of veggie boxes.
Find out how you can pre-order veg boxes on the website: https://splo-down.org/
