Welcome to the Compendium of Community Cookery!

At MUD we live to grow, cook, share and eat food. We are lucky enough to meet so many great people at the garden, all with their own stories and recipes to share. This compendium is a way for us to pass on these great recipes to others. 
 

Please add your own recipe to the compendium and let's watch it grow together...just like we do at the garden. 

 

One day we hope to have a real life Compendium of Community Cookery, lots of videos for you to watch on our YouTube Channel and to host more cookery workshops at the garden for us all to learn, share and eat with each other.

 

Enjoy!
