  • Plant Perfections Market Stall at Columbia Market, from Hull Hill Farm, Avely Road, Upminster Essex<br />
<br />
Every Sunday morning at Columbia Road Flower market, Hackney London. Probably one of London's most hip and trendy East End markets. The ambience is great, packed full with people who love and want to buy flowers, you can hardly move.<br />
<br />
British local flowers, grown nearby, count for around 10% of the UK market, traveling less than a tenth of their foreign counterparts which are often flown in from abroad. Nearly 90% of the flowers sold in the UK are actually imported, and many travel over 3000 miles. Local flower farms help biodiversity, providing food and habitat to a huge variety of wildlife, insects including butterflies, bugs, and bees. Often local flower farmers prefer to grow organic rather than using pesticides. British flowers bloom all the year around, even in the depths of winter, and there are local flower farms throughout the country.<br />
<br />
Many people like the idea of the just picked from the garden look, and come to flower farms throughout Britain to pick their own for weddings, parties and garden fetes. Others come for the joy of a day out in the countryside with their family. Often a bride and her family will come to pick the flowers for her own wedding, some even plant the seeds earlier in the year.

  • ROYAL CAMBODIAN RAILWAYS. The journey from Phnom Penh to Battambang is the last working route. A passenger train, operates only at weekends. A Czech made diesel locomotive, leaves the capital Saturday morning, arriving in Battambang 22 hours later in the dead of night, and returns on Sunday. Max speed is about 30kmh, often slower due to the track's terrible condition. Carriages are dilapidated, with holes in the floor and only spaces for windows. Passengers sit or sleep on hardwood bench seats, hammocks, or on the floor of cargo carriages. The drivers, controllers & guards add to their small monthly pay by charging for local passengers and cargo; from motor bikes and local produce to timber loaded aboard at the 30 stations along the route. This together with other trains and farm vehicles further slows the journey. In rural areas, the track is a lifeline, and used for local transport on 'bamboo trains' powered by belt-motors, or pushcarts. Boom towns, with a 'goldrush mentality' near the rapidly depleted rainforest, are a hive of activity, with logging as their resource, where children workers even gamble away their earnings on cardgames. In the city, the railway has a life of its own, where people live and work nearby or on the track itself. Market stalls, restaurants, chairs and tables, are removed only briefly, when the infrequent train passes!///Market stalls selling T-shirts near Phnom Penh station

  • Every Sunday morning at Columbia Road Flower market, Hackney London. Probably one of London's most hip and trendy East End markets. The ambience is great, packed full with people who love and want to buy flowers, you can hardly move.<br />
<br />
British local flowers, grown nearby, count for around 10% of the UK market, traveling less than a tenth of their foreign counterparts which are often flown in from abroad. Nearly 90% of the flowers sold in the UK are actually imported, and many travel over 3000 miles. Local flower farms help biodiversity, providing food and habitat to a huge variety of wildlife, insects including butterflies, bugs, and bees. Often local flower farmers prefer to grow organic rather than using pesticides. British flowers bloom all the year around, even in the depths of winter, and there are local flower farms throughout the country.<br />
<br />
Many people like the idea of the just picked from the garden look, and come to flower farms throughout Britain to pick their own for weddings, parties and garden fetes. Others come for the joy of a day out in the countryside with their family. Often a bride and her family will come to pick the flowers for her own wedding, some even plant the seeds earlier in the year.

  • Unsold tomatoes from Rungis market. Vegetables cooking for evening meal in kitchen<br />
<br />
The Freegan Pony is an alternative restaurant housed in a squat. It was founded in 2015 by Aladdin Charni with three other collaborators. The restaurant specialises in cheap vegetarian cuisine, serving meals which guests reserve a place through a Facebook group, paying €2 a meal. The restaurant meals contain unsold and donated food, collected from wholesellers at the Paris Rungis vegetable market. The Freegan Pony is located at the Porte de la Vilette on the outskirts of Paris, at the entrance to the peripherique outer circle motorway.<br />
<br />
Freegans are people who employ alternative strategies for living based on limited participation in the conventional economy and minimal consumption of resources. Freeganism is the practice of reclaiming and eating food that has been discarded. People who attempt to live an ethical lifestyle by reusing trash and rubbish thrown away by others.<br />
<br />
Freeganism is an ill-defined activity and is a subset of the larger anti-capitalist and environmental protest movements. It embraces alternative, anti-consumerist lifestyles. Freegan practices also include co-operative living, squatting and "freecyling", or matching things that people want to get rid of with things other people need

  • Terri Chandler of Worm London, flower arrangements at a trendy restaurant "Raw Duck" in London<br />
<br />
Terri Chandler of Worm London, based in Stoke Newington. Part of a recent 'start up'. She and her partner set up last year after taking diplomas in flower arrangement. They run a local business with local British Flowers which they buy from New Covent Garden Market. They work for restaurants, weddings and functions.<br />
<br />
British local flowers, grown nearby, count for around 10% of the UK market, traveling less than a tenth of their foreign counterparts which are often flown in from abroad. Nearly 90% of the flowers sold in the UK are actually imported, and many travel over 3000 miles. Local flower farms help biodiversity, providing food and habitat to a huge variety of wildlife, insects including butterflies, bugs, and bees. Often local flower farmers prefer to grow organic rather than using pesticides. British flowers bloom all the year around, even in the depths of winter, and there are local flower farms throughout the country.<br />
<br />
Many people like the idea of the just picked from the garden look, and come to flower farms throughout Britain to pick their own for weddings, parties and garden fetes. Others come for the joy of a day out in the countryside with their family. Often a bride and her family will come to pick the flowers for her own wedding, some even plant the seeds earlier in the year.
