Rosie Boycott, London Mayor Boris Johnson's principal food adviser, will attend the meeting of the London branch of Women’s Food & Farming (WFU) taking place on 20 April.

WFU is behind many of the UK's food strategies, including the new "Look Local" campaign.

Capital Growth was launched last year by the Mayor of London and Boycott, to boost grow your own by creating 2,012 community food growing spaces by 2012.

The scheme, managed by London Food Link, now has numerous spaces being cultivated, including canal banks, schools, roofs, private gardens open to the community and parks.

The WFU meeting is taking place to elect its London branch officers, as well as to form a number of committees.
