Green Food Market in Lyngby on Saturday, September 12!

Grønt Marked x Kgs. Lyngby Madmarked

Kom til Lyngby Torv i morgen📍 foran rådhuset - til en dag fyldt med sæsonens friske, lokalt producerede råvarer, lækker mad, musik og godt selskab 💚

Gå på opdagelse blandt lokale jordbrug og fødevareproducenter, få høsten i hus og mød menneskene bag alt det lækreste, september har at byde på.

Mens der handles fra boderne, demonstrerer markedskøkkenet, hvordan du sylter og gemmer sæsonens grøntsager til senere. Og mellem kl. 11 og 14 kan du opleve live folkemusik midt i den hyggelige markedsstemning.

Farmers markets forbinder små, lokale jordbrug og fødevareproducenter direkte med de mennesker, der skal spise maden. Det forkorter værdikæden og skaber samtidig en unik platform for viden, fortællinger og samtaler om madens vej fra jord til bord.

Vil du gerne se flere farmers markets? Så kom og støt markedet på lørdag!
Kom for de lækre varer – og bliv hængende for maden, musikken og fællesskabets skyld. 🥕🎶

🍽️✨ Thank you to everyone who joined our From Lab to Table: The Future of Food event!

We had a fascinating evening exploring how microbes, fermentation, and research gastronomy are shaping the future of food. The Head R&D Chef Kim Wejendorp at DTU-BRIGHT shared how bacteria, yeast, and fungi are being used in food research and innovation — from new approaches to cheese, chicken, and meat (burger) alternatives to more sustainable versions of familiar everyday foods.

The discussion also touched on some of today’s biggest food challenges: growing populations, land use limitations, and the need to reduce and reuse food waste more effectively. One especially interesting perspective was how changing eating habits is not only about technology or sustainability, but also about culture. Food is deeply connected to cultural identity, traditions, and emotions, and these “cultural codes” play an important role in whether people are willing to embrace new foods and more sustainable choices.

Thank you to everyone who joined the discussion and brought so many thoughtful questions and reflections throughout the evening. We look forward to seeing you again at future Lyngby International Club events! 🌱
