B&H Food Partnership Logo and Harvest logo
The Brighton & Hove Food Partnership believes that healthy people make a healthy city and that all residents should be able to enjoy food that is nutritious and produced in ways that respect people, animals and the environment.
We want to see more locally produced food and better access to affordable, fresh, seasonal food in Brighton & Hove. We want people to have more opportunities to learn to cook and grow food and an increased understanding of the links between food and health and where food comes from. And we hope to help bring about an increased enjoyment of and respect for food.
You’ll be able to taste some locally grown food, meet people involved in community growing projects, plant some seeds, and learn more about how to eat a healthy, tasty diet.
