We're in Westminster today launching the UK Fruit & Veg Coalition, which we co-founded! We're meeting with MPs and other politicians to discuss our key messages: grow more fruit & veg in the uk, reduce reliance on imports and make healthy, fresh, sustainable produce available to all

CSAs continue to deliver public goods that supermarkets never could: fresh food grown with care, thriving ecosystems & meaningful work that brings people together.

We are disappointed that the UK government has stopped the Sustainable Farming Initiative in England with no notice and with no consultation with the farming sector.

This was their flagship environmental scheme, so where does it leave agroecological, sustainable farming?

CSA is an opportunity to exercise your economic power as a consumer and say that you want a food system that pays farmers fairly, treats your local landscape ethically and allows you and your community to be well fed.

To support our work: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/community-...

It's easy to shop without thinking about where the produce has come from, whether it's in season, what the farmers were paid and how much it cost the earth.

But if you can, source food directly from your farmer to secure their livelihood and make much needed economic, social and ecological change

Some of our thoughts from this year's ORFC. Our network coordinator Suzy Russell spoke with the Minister of State for Food Security & Rural Affairs, along with Rebecca Laughton from the Land workers Alliance & Cath Dalmeny from Sustain: The Alliance For Better Food & Farming.
