An incredibly diverse range of fresh, local and seasonal produce is available across North Somerset. This leaflet lists an amazing array of over 50 local producers and retailers where you can find all sorts of locally reared meat, smoked fish, cheese, dairy products, traditionally baked goods, fruit and vegetables, chutneys, real ale and cider. We’re also realistic though, and some prepared food is listed if it’s made locally, in an artisan way, and from great ingredients. Local purchasing means you are supporting local businesses, the local economy and the local environment – this leaflet shows how easily you can buy direct from many local producers, through veg and meat box schemes, Farmers’ Markets, farm shops, Country and Village markets and your local retailer. So, keep supermarket shopping to a minimum and make your shopping experience a more local, pleasurable and sociable experience rather than a dreaded chore. Printed April 2010 Allotments and Community Growing Allotments are a great way to grow your own fruit and vegetables, it’s affordable, a good source of quality food, fun, sociable and a great form of exercise. For more information on allotments visit www.nsalg.org.uk or contact your local town or parish council for allotments in your area. You can even ‘grow your own’ at home if you have a window box or use containers in small gardens. Due to the increasing demand for allotments many communities are exploring new ways of growing and buying produce by developing community growing spaces, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) projects and establishing local food co-ops. Contact your local Transition group or visit www.makinglocalfoodwork.co.uk. Farmers’ Markets – monthly Farmers’ Markets provide the opportunity to buy fresh local, seasonal produce direct from a variety of growers and producers. They illustrate the diversity and distinctiveness of local produce and often feature some specialist products. For more information visit www.farmersmarkets.net. Farmers’ Markets in North Somerset sell a great selection of local produce including lamb, beef, poultry, pork, game, preserves, cakes, juices, dairy products, eggs, bread, plants and honey.

Consequently many British varieties are being lost. Buying locally distinctive produce and varieties will help their survival. l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l Healthy eating and physical activity l l l l Choosing local food can help you keep healthy – the key to a healthy diet is variety. Base meals on starchy foods like wholemeal bread, potatoes and pasta. Include lots of lovely fruit and veg, some protein like meat, fish, eggs or lentils and some milk and dairy foods. l l l Try to do around 30 minutes of physical activity every day – a walk to the farm shop or Farmers’ Market will get you active and you can pick up some local produce at the same time. l l l l l l l l l l l l For more information about healthy and active living visit the Go4Life website at www.go4life.org.
