Mercato Metropolitano
Mercato Metropolitano, centrally located in London's south east Elephant & Castle, is the city’s first sustainable community market focused on revitalizing neighbourhoods and protecting the environment. The market has incubated more than 48 food and beverage businesses, a delicatessen with sustainably sourced products from local farmers and artisans, a unique cinema experience, a communal kitchen and several circular economy concepts including a Bavarian micro-brewery, a hydroponics farm, a mushroom garden from spent coffee grounds and a vertical garden in a double decker bus to name a few. MM, launched in 2016, attracts up to 60,000 people a week to a part of the city that previously had little footfall. It aims to teach urban dwellers that they can support their local and rural communities while at the same time protecting the environment by focusing on what they eat and how they eat.

Mercato Metropolitano near Elephant & Castle is probably best known as a great date venue or hang out spot with friends with its diverse food court, however, they have a "giving back to the community" angle to their business. "MM in the Community" are organizing a programme of activities for the local children during the school holidays. These activities include cooking, dance, tree planting, martial arts, t-shirt designing, yoga and theatre classes.

The sessions will be run by professionals. However, they would love our support to oversee the activities, look after the children, serve lunch and other small tasks. They would need 2-3 volunteers for this. Please sign-up, if you can commit.

The four day programme is as following:

  • Monday 4th April (11:00-14:30): Pasta Cookery Class, Lunch and Dance

  • Tuesday 5th April (11:00-14:00): Planting session and lunch at Walworth Garden

  • Monday 11th April (11:30-15:30): Martial arts, Lunch and T-Shirt Design Workshop - This listing

  • Tuesday 12th April (11:30-15:00): Yoga, Lunch and Theatre

How are you getting there?
