Each week a different cook delivers hot jacket potatoes to their neighbours in Walthamstow.
Neighbours in north-east London are cooking food for the street in one oven once a week to reduce energy usage.
Potato Mondays was launched by Adam Walters, who lives in Walthamstow, in a bid to cut down on emissions and build a sense of community. Instead of firing up multiple ovens, those joining in alternate cooking jacket potatoes for everyone else, with the weekly chef then delivering them.Potato Mondays began when Mr Walters created a Facebook page and a WhatsApp group called CULE Zone .Potato Mondays was launched by Adam Walters from Walthamstow to cut energy use and emissions
The forums were a place for people to post practical ideas for collectively reducing carbon emissions at a local level. The plan to share an oven came from the group, with a focus on potatoes because they are easy to prepare and can be used as a base for a range of toppings.
