The rain certainly didn't put the guests off, with 50 joining us for LBs annual festive meal. ๐ŸŽ„
We started off with...
Peter's Leek & potato soup with garlic croutons, really yummy ๐Ÿ˜

Next, Gladys winter wellington,(Quorn,mushrooms,onions, seasoning), green beads with Gabe on parsnips, sprouts, carrots,gravy, stuffing. PL Lynne on roast potaoes.

We finshed off with PL Lynne fruit cake, a seperate fruit cake for those with different dietary needs, and Gemmas mini cinnamon and ginger cupcakes ๐Ÿง
With the volunteers eating aswell, we served 61 in total !

All the volunteers excelled themselves, they were truly amazing, coming in early to cook, bag up the extra goodies bags, setting up the raffle, also the gifts for everyone on the table, plus the mountain of surplus food.
The guests were full with food, laughter, company, surplus food, gifts, many happy faces. ๐Ÿ˜

So to the thanks....
Without the generous support from the volunteers, Longbridge Methodist church, Jody & Teal, LB wouldn't be as successful !

๐ŸŽ„ The Christmas Spirit is Already Shining Bright at Foodcycle Kingstanding! โœจ

What an incredible day at our community meal yesterday! Even with a reduced volunteer due to some no-shows (we missed you!), the heart of our amazing volunteers was glowing brighter than any Christmas lights!

Thanks to their hard work, and the generous donations we received, we were able to serve a whopping 60 guests a delicious, FREE community meal which included 2 children! (We were at capacity and hate to do it, but had to turn a few people away for health and safety. We'll try to find more space soon!)

In addition to our regular supermarket surplus heroes, this week was extra special thanks to some incredible community support:

๐ŸŽ **Maney Hill Primary School:**
Thank you for the generous donation of tinned foods and grocery items! You truly brightened our shelves.
๐Ÿฅฆ **FareShare:**
Your donation of fresh vegetables made our main course shine!

Our guests enjoyed a full, delicious, and FREE three-course meal:

Starter - Warm Butternut Squash Soup with bread.
Main - A delicious FoodCycle Quorn Roast Dinner with rich gravy.
Pudding - A comforting Strawberry and Apple Sponge with creamy custard.

Not only did everyone get a fantastic meal, but the generosity of our donors meant we could send every guest home with a generously filled surplus bag of food!

---

Guests both new and old........We Need Your Help to Keep the Magic Going! ๐Ÿ“ฃ

The spirit of Christmas is about giving, and we need your help to ensure we don't have to turn anyone away next week. If you have a few hours to spare, please consider joining our incredible team of food collectors, cooks, or hosts! www.foodcycle.org.uk

๐Ÿ™ A Final Note - A massive thank you to all the dedicated volunteers who showed up and worked so hard to make our community dining experience possible each week๐Ÿ’š
