It can feed us in a crisis, strengthen our local economies and create better places to live.
Demand for local food is strong but the sector faces enormous structural challenges to scaling up and out. With more support and investment, the sector could grow to meet that demand, and further strengthen our national resilience and quality of life.
That’s why we created the Local Food Plan.
Over 2 years, we consulted 500+ local food system actors to find out what the sector needs to grow.
We uncovered four big shifts and 31 key actions needed to enable the sector to thrive.
Read our ambitious, collaborative action plan to expand the local food sector.
