- Why do you think local food production is important?
- Minimising the impact of what we eat through limiting unnecessary food miles is good for the planet. Buying from local producers at fair prices helps them to avoid the problem of dealing with supermarkets. Local is often fresher and better quality. Finally, communities built around local food production are an important part of wider community action towards resilience.
