Disco Soup Toronto

Join Slow Food Toronto, the Stop Community Food Centre, Councillor Joe Mihevc (Ward 21, St. Pauls West) and the Wychwood Barns Community Association for the first ever DISCO SOUP TO! The event is FREE and open to the public!

You can take part in two ways: join us on Saturday, April 29th from 3 pm to 6 pm at the Wychwood Barns to help us wash, chop, peel and plan out how we will make the soups on the following day.

Or join us the day of on Sunday, April 30th from 10 am to 2 pm to eat soup, have fun and learn about food waste, or help us serve the soup!!

Disco Soup is a Slow Food Youth Network Project. 2017 marks the first year that this event is going global, with the point being to bring attention to food waste.

While parts of the world population suffer from hunger, one third of the food intended for human consumption is being thrown away every year. 1.3 billion of tons of food is being fed to bins. At the same time, according to FAO, we only produce enough food to supply the worlds growing population until 2050. Its clear we have a huge challenge in front of us.
