Cambridge makes blackberry boxes for low-income families

A community group is hoping to provide free food to low-income households after noticing an abundance of blackberries growing on bushes.

Cambridge Sustainable Food aims to provide blackberry-based recipe boxes to 50 households in the city.

Alex Vardill, from the organisation, told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire that the group did not want fruit to go to waste

The kits would include recipe cards and pre-weighed and measured ingredients, and would be distributed via the Cambridge Food Hub group.
