With climate change and geopolitical shifts jeopardising urban food sovereignty, Nomading 2050 employs the principles of feral methodology to reimagine the urban foodscape as a resilient, adaptable and symbiotic ecosystem. In a post-industrial context in Liverpool, this project emerges as a visionary response, pioneering a transformation in how the city perceives, coexists with, and harnesses the potential of the residual sites. A seasonal, localised diet revolution maps minimalist and sustainable nomadic ethos onto the pressing demands of urban living to 2050 and beyond.

It taps into the power of pioneer species and their symbiotic relationships with urban geology as the ecosystem engineers, to co-create landscapes and livelihoods. The imagined organisation Nomading empowers local communities to reclaim residual spaces, to transform them into thriving centres of sustenance and biodiversity.

The Nomading model, with the support of community engagement and ecological techniques, encourages a grassroots approach to urban regeneration, where each participant becomes a producer of nourishment, a guardian of biodiversity, and a steward of their environment.
