ConnectedRoots

Connected Roots is a project that aims to create a trading connection between communities and to allow those who don't grow to learn how and to put a meal on the table for less.

Connected Roots is about growing locally and sharing what you don't want/need.

We want to make food social, cheap and fresh,
and we want you there with us.

Britain has a strong penetration of internet and its evident that we are beyond the point where the internet is considered the first reference or purchase point for most activities. But what actual benefit does the internet bring? What social benefit does it deliver beyond mere voyeurism? Using the internet for a communal, social positive is the progressive element of - to use a clique - web 3.0. Connected Roots is part of this; where the internet will be used as a contributory aspect of the entire process, allowing people to reach and discover each other for an environmental and economic benefit rather than a static, disjointed mechanism.
