Love your local
Putting even one thing in your shopping basket that’s locally produced or organic makes all the difference. It’s a vote for the future…
– Sheherazade Goldsmith, Environmentalist
Sourcing local, sustainably-grown meats and in season produce is great for our health and wellbeing. They are fresher, reduce our carbon footprint and support our local producers and environment. Locally grown fruit and veg are also full of flavour, being grown seasonably and sold at peak ripeness keeping the nutrients otherwise lost when picked early and shipped across long distances.
What can I do?
Three easy moves to get you started on the road to a healthier, more flavorsome menu:
- Find our where your food comes from!
- Shop local, swap or grow your own fruit and veg.
- Support community gardens, farmers markets and sustainably-grown farm-direct options.
