Nestled at the foot of the South Downs and right on the coast, Brighton and Hove is a city with a rich food culture and a bounty on its doorstep. Lamb and cattle have grazed the Downs for centuries and the coastal waters have long supplied a thriving fishing industry. And that’s not all. A great variety of cheeses, fruit, bread, eggs, honey, fresh vegetables, wine, cider and beer are all produced in the hinterland, giving residents and visitors the chance to enjoy tasty local food and drink.
Brighton has long been a hub of activity around projects that acknowledge the links between the food we eat, how it’s grown, our health and that of the environment. We at Brighton and Hove Food Partnership work with this in mind to promote better food across the city (more about us).
This wesbite is dedicated to food in Brighton and Hove. You can find out about local food events, where to source local produce, healthy eating and lots more. Our current projects include Community Cookery, School Food, Healthy Choice Award, Community Nutrition and Food Waste.
Spade to Spoon The citywide food strategy and action plan, Spade to Spoon: making the connections, offers a unique cross-sectoral approach to improving access to local and healthy food for all residents. Click here to read it.
