Eat Local

LESS is in the process of compiling a guide to buying local food and is seeking food producers and businesses in North Lancashire and South Cumbria to appear in this new directory. The guide will take in food produced within a 30-mile radius from the Lancaster district, which extends to Penrith, Skipton, Clitheroe, and includes Chorley, Burnley, Southport, Nelson and the Fylde area and will be the first of its kind to help north Lancashire shoppers reduce their carbon footprint and support local food businesses by buying local food.  We want to hear from people who produce, sell, or manufacture locally grown food, as well as restaurants or pubs which source food locally for their menus.

Jennifer Lauruol of LESS, said: “LESS is a climate change project, and one way we can reduce our carbon footprint and impact on climate change is to buy and eat food produced locally instead of food that’s been shipped large distances. It’s not always easy to find locally produced food. This guide should make it easier and enable people to reduce their carbon impact by supporting local rural business and to enjoy some great food.”
