Local Produce Project Officers
Northern Marches- England Leader Plus and Cholmondeley Estates have funded an innovative two-year project aimed at developing a flexible and sustainable supply chain model for South West Cheshire and North Shropshire.
The project, which began in November 2005, aims to connect food producers, growers and distributors to businesses and individual customers and develop a Rural Distribution Hub to promote sustainable food procurement.
The aims of Localproduce.org:
- Develop and implement a business strategy to develop a local produce collection and distribution centre in Cheshire
- Trial ‘Local Produce to Market’ initiatives
- Increase the accessibility and consumption of high quality, sustainably sourced food and drink
- Provide a series of training advice days to support local producers
If you want any more details about the project, training or the Rural Distribution Hub, please contact us.
We would like to thank Made in Cheshire for providing data for the project. www.madeincheshire.com
