Ethical eats – zero waste cafes and community projects

Two Guardian Local events next month will be focus on food and sustainability. Silo is a zero waste restaurant in Brighton that trades directly with farmers, produces its own butter, beer and flour and uses an onsite compost machine for scraps. While Corin Bell will be talking to members about her new pop up restaurant in Manchester that will use food that would otherwise be thrown away.

We’ve heard of cafes where you can buy coffee for a homeless person, restaurants where you can pay for your meal by washing up. Now we’d like to find out what’s going on near you?

Share photos and descriptions of sustainable cafes and projects that you know about and we’ll publish the some them of them online and in our next Membership supplement out on 4 July.

You can share your photos, videos and stories by clicking on the blue ‘Contribute’ buttons on this article. You can also use the GuardianWitness smartphone app or the Guardian app and search for ‘GuardianWitness assignments.’

  • GuardianWitness is the home of readers’ content on the Guardian. Contribute your video, pictures and stories, and browse news, reviews and creations submitted by others. Posts will be reviewed prior to publication on GuardianWitness, and the best pieces will feature on the Guardian site.
