[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2098472, member: 256617"] Great teasing out of the facts ladies and gents. I think the initiative proposed could work. It kind of does in my local community. We have farmers markets thriving within a quarter to half mile of well known big and mid range supermarkets in Harwich and Manningtree (Essex). There are local allotments in my village, where 2 of my immediate neighbour's rep a good harvest. If I turn left from my home and drive 2 miles straight in either direction I can get potatoes (if I ate that way), 3 places that sell duck and hens eggs, strawaberries and other fruit. Most cities in the UK have smaller towns and the like on the outskirts with loads of land, could these be the answer similar to where I live in a village? Some supermarket brands pretend to be locally supplied, but we have seen the TV programmes, why can't they strike deals with local farms properly. All real food protocols such as clean (not judging), carnivore, Vegetarian, Vegan and animal based Keto would / could be satisfied with locally grown and sourced foods. This would mean non ones nose apart from big food, for those who still want to do processed stuff, would be put out of shape. I give the initiative a thumbs up, if it could be delivered with the above in mind. [/QUOTE]
