Collectives & Hubs

Calling all collectives, food organisers, food hubs, events, pop up and food lovers. This is a free service to help you promote and advertise your business.

On these pages we will be adding the people and movements behind the food on the street and in the fields around the UK. Promoting what you do and how you do it. We have been working with Navina Bartlett and her food collective ‘StrEATS’. This is the beginning of something new. Its not just about one group but all groups together. We at Foodhawkers are providing the framework and testing ground to get this started we now look to you to get this moving.
