Want to get involved?

The New Forest Food Project will be actively involved throughout 2011 in promoting local food as widely as possible.  We plan to organise and attend events, get involved with schools and generally get local food high up on the agenda.  To do this we need people, ideas and energy.  The Planning Group is a place where you can contribute - the more the merrier!
