About the Podcast

Love British Food
Love British Food is a national organisation working at grassroots and industry level to make good food available to all. British Food Fortnight and the National Harvest Service are just a few of the events under pinned by working groups of industry experts from universities, schools, hospitals and care catering.


This podcast is an opportunity to hear from those at the front line of producing and delivering sustainable supply chains in communities across the country. So many people have a story to tell and experiences to share - all united by a passion to reinvigorate our food system and get British food back onto the menu.

We will be talking to industry people from farms, wholesalers and catering teams who bring this wonderful produce together.


This is definitely a farm to fork story. Join us every month to be part of our movement.
