This Swedish Pantry project, Umea Skafferi, was set up during the Survival Kit Festival in Umea, celebrating European Cultural City 2014 through its food. It focused on local growers, producers, and sustainable food culture, serving as a meeting place for dialogue and sharing.
The Umea Skafferi (Swedish Pantry) project, presented during the Survival Kit Festival, served as a focal point for exploring the food landscape and producers of Umea, the European Cultural City of 2014. Running from Sunday, September 21 to Sunday, October 19, the pantry was envisioned as a space filled with donations from local growers and producers, inviting guests to contribute in return. This concept aimed to mirror the local food production network, its consumers, and the natural offerings of the Ume� region. The project also facilitated dialogues on the roles within the food chain and fostered creative suggestions for sustainable food culture. Throughout the festival, the pantry was a lively meeting place with weekend food-sharing events, 'Skafferi Prat' (Pantry Talks), presentations, workshops, seminars, and informal dialogues.
The event was open for food-sharing events every weekend with various activities dedicated to food-related themes. Specific ticketing information beyond this general access is not provided on the page.
