Community Kitchens Action Hub

28 October 2025 | OmVed Gardens, London

Strengthening Chefs, Strengthening Kitchens, Strengthening Communities

Community kitchens are integral right around the world, for bringing together community members, creating connections, and sharing over meals. The Community Kitchens Action hub brings together the Chefs´ Manifiesto community, OmVeg Gardens, and The Good Kitchen for a full-day of collaboration and action. Participants will exchange ideas, share a collective meal that was prepared for the good kitchen team, and hear directly from young chefs shaping the future of food. Together, we will spotlight the vital role of community kitchens and co-create strategies to sustain and strengthen these spaces or the years ahead.

We connected with chefs, young leaders, community organisers, educators, and change-makers working towards resilient community kitchens and stronger food systems to share, learn, and be inspired to collaborate towards a stronger future for community kitchens.

As a result of the London workshop and our mission to share what we have learnt here in Sicily, we are now working towards setting up a Community Kitchen Network and we are looking forward to future networking events for community kitchens.
