Whether you are a producer or consumer who has a passion for local food and rural issues, and I suspect because you are searching this website you are… please take a moment search to the links. You will find a wealth of information on many subjects that supports the local food and farming economy.  I have just added a front-page link to www.food.gov.uk This link answers a lot of questions on key subjects; on food labelling, nutrition, science & research and a lot more. The debate on organics continues but the common sense rationale of livestock reared sensitively on a wholesome diet with no additives, balanced against intensively reared livestock fattened to table weight in the shortest period, must surely prevail. Read the views of the FDA and make up your own mind… How can you help? Support your local Farmers’ Market.
