Supporting local producers
This week sees the launch of the Welsh Assembly Government’s Food Strategy for Wales consultation paper so it seems appropriate to draw attention to the fork2fork website, which tells us where and when our next farmers’ market takes place, the location of our nearest farm shop, as well as case studies’ producers locally.
From August 2010 onwards the campaign will be launching a pledge to encourage people to purchase food direct from local producers. The fork2fork campaign is a two year information and awareness raising campaign to encourage people to buy direct from the producer. The project has received funding through the Rural Development Plan for Wales 2007-13 which is funded by the Welsh Assembly Government and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development.
