The PATCH
Addressing food insecurity, while building an inclusive community of growth and learning!
We gathered for a beautiful sunrise ceremony this morning. Together, we watched the full Harvest Moon fade as the sky began to change, singing until the sun was ready to rise and give us day again. 🌕🌅
We shared strawberries with the rising sun and connected with each other in the quiet beauty of a new day.
Thank you so much Mary Lou Smoke & family for your wonderful leadership. We love learning from you🍓
We took a visit to New Moon 🌑 🌱 New Moon Community Homestead & we left with beets and watermelon to test and look at this colour reveal- we are in love with the produce at New Moon!
Grown with care and love and you can feel it.

A huge thank you to London Community Foundation for continuing to champion community, belonging, and food security in London, and for sharing the story of The PATCH and Root Awakening 🌱💛
The PATCH has grown into so much more than a garden. It’s a place where people come together, build skills, grow food, share knowledge, and most importantly, feel a sense of belonging. None of it would be possible without the volunteers, participants, partners, and community members who bring this space to life.
We’re incredibly grateful to London Community Foundation for believing in this work and supporting the Cavendish Community Food Hub from its early days.
Their latest story highlights the journey of The PATCH and Root Awakening, our documentary told through the perspective of our very own Faye Simmons.

And if you haven’t seen Root Awakening yet, there’s a special opportunity to watch it for free! Use code LCFPATCH26 for one week of free access, redeemable until September 11, 2026
