Answers to your frequently asked questions
The 3 main ways you can help are to donate funds, volunteer your time or become an investor. Please see the Support Us page for full details.
Edible London has income from our local market stall sales of fruit and vegetables jams and homemade produce, from our procurement contracts, training courses, corporate events and cooking programs, as well as from donations and grants.
Edible London is a CIC (community interest company) and therefore does not have the tax advantages of a Charity so there are no tax breaks (credits) associated with your donation. Edible London keeps its cost base low to ensure your donations go a long way without these tax breaks.
Edible London uses your donations to pay for surplus food for redistribution, for the staff to manage our amazing volunteers and for premises and other running costs.
Yes, you can. If you have paid via PayPal, you can cancel via the payment via your account.
If you don’t have a PayPal account, please contact us with your pledge amount, and the reason you would like to be refunded. No fees apply.
Monthly donations helps Edible London plan its longer term finances, it spreads the contribution for the donor whilst allowing ongoing costs of the CIC to be met each month. This is the most important type of donation because no matter the size it empowers us to plan and grow sustainably.
You can make this change via your PayPal account. Or contact us for assistance. (send to the Contact Us - Ask a question form)

We are currently building on having more markets across Haringey. At the moment we are only at Tottenham Green market once a month, with the intention to start our stall back up at Blue House Yard in the spring.
You can find us at Tottenham Green Market every second Sunday of the month to buy local Organically grown veg and fruit as well as our own jam and other in-house creative products. You will also be able to find our jams and preserves on our partners website StreetBox. We are currently working on putting a small range of products we grow to and aim for a spring launch - please sign up to our newsletter for updates.
