“Bringing the farm to your fork…”

We just came across this rather natty site, called The Local Food Directory.  If you know any local producers, this might be a good website for them to be listed on.  I’m sure we’re preaching to the converted, but here’s a bit more about what they do:

“The Local Food Directory champions the best food producers and retailers in your area. It contains a straightforward search facility for finding local food, plus lots of information on seasonal foods and recipes.

Buying your food locally means putting money in the pockets of the people who work hard to produce it, sustaining local communities and the land. It also means that you know where it comes from, how it was made and what it really contains. Buying locally cuts down food miles, which is better for the environment.

Getting to understand the food we buy and eat is rewarding. There is a wonderful variety of food in Britain, changing constantly with the seasons, and its just out there waiting to be discovered.”
