About
Feedback Organic Recovery is a Newcastle-based social enterprise built around circular urban agriculture. It diverts organic food waste away from landfill and feeds it back into community urban farms, which then grow fresh produce for the local area. The model is designed to close the loop between food waste and food growing rather than to operate as a conventional shop.
Its work runs through community urban farm sites, a "One Hour Farmer" volunteer program, and the Feedback Futures schools education program. Produce grown on the farms is sold to the public as FeedBox boxes. Note that Feedback grows vegetables rather than meat: it is included here as a local organic-food project, and there is no indication it sells the game meat listed against this entry in older directory data.
Best For
