Welcome to a very special edition of Queer Farm Club!
This Month we will be getting ready to bring Dating Offline for Pride Month with some crafts SPECIFICALLY for queer cuties looking for love!
It will still be a lovely day at Spitalfields City Farm crafting, exploring the farm, cooking, and feasting in the evening - but this time it's also the Summer Fayre & Queer IRL Rosette Making, Stamping and making Ask Me Out Bracelets!
What will we be doing?
- Wander around, say hi to the animals, take in the gardens, chill in the cafe area, Enjoy the Summer Fayre!
- The Crafts will be Queer IRL Rosette Making, Queer IRL Stamping and making Ask Me Out Bracelets - all to making meeting people IRL easier
- Chill reading/knitting/drawing/crafting at the farm for the vibes
- Help with the cooking for the feast!
- Come along just for the feast!
SCHEDULE:

- 4PM - THE FARM GATES ARE LOCKED (the gate will still be open after this but will look closed)

Help with the feast is always welcome! This looks like chopping and peeling veg. Making salads. Stirring and watching the pot. Tidying/ washing up. Please wash your plates and bowls when you are finished with them 🥰
FARM DAY
For the farm day think fun community vibes, enjoying nature, helping out, crafting or having a slow day.
For the feast think lovely, cosy, nourishing vibes - coming together with our community to break bread, feel the love and make connections.
We will be providing plenty of food, using some farm food to make some lovely vegan GF dishes - but if you can,
please bring your own dishes to add to the table. (especially desserts!)
Donations are very welcome but if you can't donate, we still want you at the event!
BRING TUPPERWARE FOR LEFTOVERS!
THE FEAST TAKES PLACE IN A TENT STRUCTURE SO IT CAN BE CHILLY - There are heaters but please dress warm for the evening temperatures <3
